A black and white photograph of an unidentified woman standing by La Casa Nueva's screen door, June 29, 1932. The woman wears a hat and a long short-sleeved dress which has a v-neck, a striped pattern, and a belt. She also wears white heels which have laces that zig-zag across the front. Her arms are behind her back and she leans slightly on the left side of the doorway. Around the doorway is a plaster design of columns, vines, grapes, and wheat. The screen door at the right has geometrical and six-point star designs. Part of the Main Hall and courtyard door are visible throught the screen. A mat is on the north porch's flagstone floor in front of the screen door. At the left is a potted plant and a window. The window has no visible glass. Above the window is part of an iron light fixture. Stamped in purple on the back is "EPS / June 29 1932 / 44."
