I have reviewed the direct quote from the Wikipedia page Ira Chaffee Goodell and it appears that its source maybe from a "non-free" site from the page https://www.themagazineantiques.com/article/city-folk-2/.

Wikipedia reviewers:

Please remove the following paragraph from the page: "In this City, thirty years ago there were nearly two hundred Portrait Painters," Ira wrote in a letter to his sister-in-law. "Now, I doubt if there is fifty, and nearly all of these are of the first class artists and are patronised by the Wealthy, paying from three to five hundred dollars apiece.—I think Hard Times and Photography, has Slain Common Portrait Painters."

I have a partial block so I cannot do it myself.
