See image of illustration of the same image signed in corner by Norman Mills Price "Norman Mills Price never fully received the popular recognition that his work deserved. Because he was so intently interested in historical subjects, he restricted his work to these almost exclusively.

In 1911, he had a studio in New York City, and worked for such publication as Harper's, Cosmopolitan, and Liberty.
