There's a small collection of papers related to Gertrude Farquharson Boyle Kanno (1878-1937) at the California Historical Society: www.oac.cdlib.org/search?style=oac4;Institution=Californi... She sculpted busts of Christy Mathewson, John Muir, Henry Cowell, Joaquin Miller, Margaret Sanger, and others.

She would have been 38 in 1914. It looks like she is posing here as the ghost of someone's departed loved one, while Kanno depicts a mourner, bereft and crumpled at the grave.
