    After the rogue wave came in, it dawned on everybody that maybe Croquet should be played on grass.

    The only timeout that effectively corrected Little Janie’s behavior was forcing her to watch people play croquet rather than swim at the beach.

    Then she hit the ball to hard and it flew to him and hit him in a rather delicate spot.

    A Game of Croquet

    https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Louise_Abb%C3%A9ma_-_A_Game_of_Croquet.jpg 

    (best viewed by Google Chrome – can translate pages if necessary) has info and links that point to info about this roughly jumbo envelope size painting.

     

    http://www.all-art.org/DICTIONARY_of_Art/a/Abbema2.htm 

    has info about this artist. As it states, the artist was born in 1853, not 1858, a very common mistake, such as in the pages starting with  

    https://books.google.com/books?id=rJubDAAAQBAJ&pg=PT32#v=onepage&q&f=false 

    which have more about her, but the ages mentioned are low by 5.

     

    Again, a larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #1820 (November 7, 2017) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment; so, I won’t point to it here.
