Autorenporträt
American author Fannie Caldwell used the alias Frances Little (November 22, 1863 - January 6, 1941).

Caldwell's students inspired the title, referring to her as the "Lady of the Decoration" whenever she "pinned on her little enameled watch." The work takes place between 1901 and 1905 and is written in the form of letters home to a female friend or sister; it is unclear which.
