The photo is not dated, but the same women appear in a similar photo labeled "August 17, 1912." Corinne Sawyer is at the left, and Millay is next to her. The image was taken just days before Millay's "discovery" at Whitehall Inn in Camden on August 29, 1912, when she read her poem "Renascence" to great acclaim.
