content: Biographical materials include Florence Robinson's invitation to exhibit at the 1904 World's Fair, scattered letters, and lists of works of art. Research correspondence is with Elizabeth and Norman Hapgood regarding Florence Robinson, her works of art with annotated information, the donation of her paintings after her death, and a memorial exhibition. Of note are letters acknowledging Robinson's death from Louis Carnegie, and Archer M. Huntington; and letters reflecting Elizabeth Reynolds Hapgood's efforts to exhibit or place Robinson's work in museums and galleries, among them the California Place of the Legion of Honor, the Tate Museum, and the Worcester Art Museum, among others. A thesis on Robinson is by Janet Silverman. Also found are three framed photographs of Robinson, two of her as a young woman and one of her holding a child.
