The Whitman Gallery


1879. William Kurtz, New York. Saunders #69. Courtesy Alderman Library, University of Virginia. With Harold Johnston. The grass in Harry's hand--turning him into a representation of the child in "Song of Myself" who said " What is the grass? fetching it to me with full hands"--has been sketched onto the photo. Probably a cropped and touched up version of #65.
