The picture is Miss Genth's "A May Day,Y with 8 group of her sprightly nudes under the trees but not hidden, and the poem, taken the same title and dedicated to the canvas, says of it's wood nymphs, among other things, this:

One of the canvases Miss Genth bought back presents charming study | in color effects out of doors. as we'll as an unusual composition in a young woman on a corner of verandah attend. ing bird cage, with a far vista of land scape and brilliant atmosphere.
