In 1926, Harriet Upson Allyn founded a trust to establish a museum in New London in honor of her father, Capt. Lyman Allyn. The Lyman Allyn Art Museum‘s Neo-Classical building, designed by Charles A. Platt, opened in 1932. The museum also owns the Deshon-Allyn House.

    This is what I wanted to find out. Can I use this for my educational talk about Charles A. Platt at Doshisha University?
    Thank you.
