DescriptionStudio portaits of a woman in early and late middle age. In the earlier, full-length portrait, she wears a dress with what appears to be velvet trim and stands behind an ornately carved chair and a table with a printed tablecloth. The two later bust-length portraits apparently were taken at the same time. She appears as an older woman, again wearing a dress with what appears to be velvet trim.

NotesSubject Note: Caroline Aiken Gage was the wife of William L. Gage. Her maiden name was Caroline Aiken Kimball.
