This graphite sketchbook page by Sanford Robinson Gifford features a simple inscription documenting the artist's name, address, and date in what appears to be a personal or professional record. The work exemplifies the practical use of sketchbooks by 19th century artists as repositories for notes, addresses, and documentation alongside artistic studies. As a document of Gifford's life in New York during this period, the page serves as both an artifact of the artist's working practice and a historical record of his residence on 10th Street.
