Anna Dorothea Scott Italy? gift from the artist 1885 gift or bequest to her second daughter. Scott was the great-grandmother of the donor. Scott's brother Will (presumably William Scott) who was crippled by polio was apprenticed to Cole to learn a trade. Scott was about twenty-two years old in 1885 the date of gift written on the reverse of the print and Cole was in Italy at that time. According to the donor Scott's parents were born in Europe and they were well off if not rich and so a trip to Italy for a twenty-two year old is not improbable. Anna Dorothea Scott married James Craigen Bruce in 1891 becoming A. Dora Bruce.
