Description

Color: Brown; Green; White A black and white reproduction photograph of the family plot in El Campo Santo, 1966. Taken from the southeastern part of the grounds, much of the original cast-iron fence is visible. Within the plot are the graves of John Rowland, center, and, behind his marker toward the center, Adrian and John H. Temple, Jr., whose sister Edith was visiting the site with Loretta Berner, donor of the photograph. In the background are an arbor vitae and some large trees, while to the left is a portion of the mausoleum. In the foreground is part of the sidewalk and lawn. On the upper reverse in blue ink, probably in Berner's hand, is "Cemetary [sic] 1966." With little indication of wear or damage, the print is in good condition. Number-Units: 1
