This wedding portrait of Harriette was done by artist George Berthon. It is presently on view in the Canadian wing of the AGO. Harriette came from an influential and wealthy Boston family. On her marriage to William, The Grange was put in trust to her as part of what was known as a marriage settlement. This is why the donation of the Grange to the AGO was done in her name.
