Woman of the Century — Mary J. Dunlap (1893)
“ After seven years of study Miss Durgin returned to Boston, where she had many friends, and in company with her sifter opened a studio in the most fashionable quarter of the city. Their rooms were soon frequented on reception days by admirers and lovers of art, and commissions have never been wanting to keep their brushes constantly employed. As a flower painter she stands among the foremost of American artists. ”
