Jervis McEntee Diary Entry, January 21, 1883, from the Jervis McEntee papers, 1850-1905, in the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution

Sunday, Jan 21, 1883 Commenced a picture of the same thing I made a drawing of, Gussie looking out the window on the winter landscape, only I made it much larger 14x18 and got a good beginning. Calvert and I started out for a walk after dinner beyond the cemetery but he was obliged to return as the snow was saturated with water and it had begun to freeze so that he broke through at every step and wet his feet. I had my arches on and went on out to the view but the walking was most difficult.
