While I was writing Green Gables my idea of Anne's face was taken from a picture I had cut from a magazine, passe-partouted, and hung on the wall of my room—a photograph of a real girl somewhere in the U.S., but I have no idea who she was or where she lived. I wonder if she ever read of Anne, never dreaming that, physically, she was the original! I lately came across the picture in an old scrap-book and I am putting it here. - L.M. Montgomery's journal entry for November 9, 1934, including the photo of Evelyn Nesbit that served as the original inspiration for Anne.
