26 x 39" Buried in Rome, she died at 16 in 1921 of typhus. I photographed her marble portrait there in November 2017; i am still trying to find out who sculpted her. Her floral print dress was cutting edge in '21; this style shows up in US catalogues in 1935. Here she was on vacation at Tivoli. Her parents had moved with her, their only child, from Chile for her budding career as a concert pianist.
