The picture is well photographed and designed

The farmer's daughter is a painter, rather sentimental in her attachment to her art. There's a country lover and a sportsman from the city who is stopping with her father. She runs away with the latter to study art in New York. Later we see her in a beautiful apartment and the man comes in drunk. He leaves her; she is cast on her own resources. Her inspiration is the bright memories of her youth cast upon the dark present. The picture is not great, but while as to its superficial things it is not true, there is a root of truth in it; but its significance is true only of genius. The picture is well photographed and designed. One could hardly call the ending a sincere scene. - The Moving Picture World, October 7, 1911
