The link at nyhistory.org above no longer works, but the New York Historical Society has www.nyhistory.org/exhibit/caroline-astor-drayton-1880-1965 which is probably equivalent. www.findagrave.com/memorial/125859622/caroline-astor-phil... for Caroline Astor Drayton Phillips has a drawing that is a match to this photograph.
