There are two labels from the De Cordova. A third label, typed in red, is probably the artist's own label, since the text provides his address as 30 Ipswich Street, Boston (which is Fenway Studios). Perkins had a studio at the Fenway Studios until moving to his own space, The Harley Perkins Gallery, at 104 Revere Street in Boston in the mid-1930s.

Framed dimensions are 36 7/8 x 24 3/4 in.
