Clémentine Dalcour (1855-1942) grew up in Ellicott City, Maryland, and taught at a high school in Philadelphia. It is unclear who she is in mourning for in this painting, as her parents both died before 1913 and there is no evidence of a husband or children. Clémentine is buried in Cecil County, Maryland.
