John Wilmerding wrote of the present work, "There are a couple of canvases from [Peto's] earlier career which will serve as a transition from the parlor to kitchen subject matter. One of these is Crumbs of Comfort of 1881, a rare work that is signed and dated on the front and titled on the reverse. (Important Information Inside: The Art of John F. Peto and the Idea of Still-Life Paintings in Nineteenth-Century America, Washington, D.C., 1983, p. 72)
