This photograph was made inside the Webb House, Wethersfield, Connecticut, one of
five old houses that Wallace Nutting owned and furnished with antiques
for his picture business.
Several variations of this picture exist with slightly different titles.
I'll try to seperate them here. Wallace Nutting illustrated two VERY similar
pictures with the title "The Yorktown Parlor" in each of his editions of
Connecticut Beautiful. On pg 148 of the first edition, the center model
is standing, facing left. (This picture is actually Birthday
Flowers, #9405.) On pg 131 of the second edition the center model is
seated, facing right. (A very close resemblance to this picture but, not
exact).
