Description

A photograph of a group of eight posing on Umbrella Rock. The group includes two women at center and six men, with one man pointing off camera. The verso has three pieces of paper glued to it with French writing, but the first pasted piece is cut off. They appear to be a description of the house they are staying in. The second paragraph and last paragraph are cut off. It appears to be a description of the author's rooms in the home as well as where all of her paintings are displayed as well as other boarders in the house, a French boarder and someone who is employed in a shell factory. Partial transcription: 1- "[?] chase du eajiu | [?] vassor sou fils, | [?] a Colonel, moi meme et [ch?]iens, Rigoletto et Parterre | [?]ail quie je porte!" 2- "L'exterier de notre maison | vous demeurous an peremier | etages, il y'a un pennsion francaire | agauch et a' droit un au crenne | garage que manterant est tourice | dans une fabrique d'obes" 3- "Ma chambre dans not[re] | apartment, voici mon br[?] | et tons mes tableaus,.
