Description
This picture appears to be, Rosa, a friend of Lawrences, writing her good wishes on on the back of her picture and giving the picture to Lawrence just prior to his travel to the United States.
The inscription on the back is a flowery phrase from Roza to "Liev" (using the familiar method of spelling her name). It reads: "Liev: Remember, all in the past will be forgotten, and all of the future ... hello!!! . . . . . In the memory of a very short meeting. Roza"
On the bottom it is written "Before leaving." dated: 21 February 1904 yr".
The photography stamp says that it is from the Photography studio of A. Serebrenik, who was regarded with a medal in 1902. It shows his studio to be in Nizhyn, but says that "negative are available for printing and are preserved" and gives an address in Odessa "The street named Pakorno?"
