A copy negative made from a print lent by the subject's daughter, Mrs. Sara Dodge Kimbrough of Bay Street in St. Louis, Mississippi, this picture shows the painter William de Leftwich Dodge. Dodge trained in Paris and went on to a career in figure painting and large decorative murals in the United States, so this portrait records the man rather than a scene or object. The caption card gives no date, and no reference print survives, so the year the original was taken is unknown. The family line of ownership is the record's most useful detail for anyone tracing how the image came to be preserved.
