Description
At 'Fete des Artistes' of Hilltoppers of the Assistance League, the gardens surrounding the Robert Dwyer home in Toluca Lake were transformed into a Parisian art colony. Would-be artists were furnished with easels, paints and brushes to see if they could become another Manet. Here, Mrs. Wilmer Buckland forms an idea as Arthur Schaefer studies the masterpiece. Photograph dated July 31, 1961.; See images #00116142 through #00116147 for all photos in this series.
