Title	Tea time at Clovercroft.
Creator	Matthews, Kate, 1870-1956 (photographer)
Description	"Tea Time at 'Clovercroft'" is inscribed in Kate Matthews' handwriting on the verso of this print, but it may also be the photograph that Kate Matthews' niece, Lillian Fletcher Brackett, referred to in a speech as "The Sisters at Tea." The women enjoying tea on the lawn at Clovercroft appear to be Kate Matthews and her four sisters, Charlotta, Jessie, Florence and Lillian. One stands as she serves from a silver tea service arranged on a small table. Three sit in chairs and one sits on a animal skin rug on the ground. A guitar leans against Florence and at the center of the group is a stone statue of a pug dog. Handwritten in verso in Kate Matthews' hand: "Tea time at 'Clovercroft'" and, in a different hand, "Mrs. Charles Brackett".
