Note du spécialiste

In this work Peggy Bacon illustrated a gathering of alumni and friends from the Art Students League and the Woodstock Artists Association at the home of painter and critic George Biddle. His wife, the artist Jane Belo, is pictured on the far left of the group. Other individuals represented include Yasuo Kuniyoshi, John Carroll, Louise Hellstrom, George Biddle, Jules Pascin, and Katherine Schmidt. Bacon includes herself, seated at the back of the room.
