110. On a Portrait of a Woman by Hovsep Pushman, by Harold Bell Wright, 1919. Hovsep Pushman (1877-1966), an important Armenian/American artist whom Wright apparently met while they were both living at the Mission Inn in Riverside, California, painted a picture of a woman (probably his wife) and presented the painting to Wright as a gift. Wright hand-lettered this poem of thanks on one large (poster-sized) sheet of paper, which until recently was displayed in the Harold Bell Wright Museum in Branson, MO., near the painting itself. Wright then made a few very ornate booklets which included a small reproduction of the painting and a copy of Wright's poem. He gave those copies to friends. The only such copy I am aware of is in the New York Public Library.	Photo courtesy the family of Harold Bell Wright.
