Re: license tag. This is an unpublished work. The author died in 1932. The author, date, and location are backed up in "Other information."

Other information: Martin owned the original mounted portrait, which was passed down the family line. The words "Campbell Studio / Waldorf Astoria" are imprinted in the lower right corner. It's viewable below under "file history" (middle picture) when enlarged to maximum size. This would date the piece between 1911 & 1913. The studio was located inside the former Waldorf-Astoria hotel, for only those three years. Sources: 1a) Trow Business Directory of the Boroughs of Manhattan and the Bronx, 1913 p. 785 (address listing). 1b) Studio Light, Eastman Kodak Company, March 1917 p. 12. Excerpt: "In 1911, the Campbell Studio opened spacious quarters in the Waldorf Astoria, but after three years found that they needed more room to carry on an ever-increasing business, so moved to their present location at 538 Fifth Avenue." Internet Archive. 1c) American Art Annual, edited by Florence Nightingale Levy, 1914 p. 514. The company's address is now 538 Fifth Avenue. HathiTrust.
