Description
A black-and-white digital image of Taylor family members posing along the coastline, probably on Martha's Vineyard. In the foreground, a woman and a man are standing and facing the camera. The woman is wearing a long-sleeved shirt, cropped pants, and hat, and she is smiling and looking to the proper left. Standing next to her is a man wearing a short-sleeved button-down shirt and trousers, and he is looking at the camera. To the proper right is another man, walking towards the camera. At the center of the photograph, at the tip of the cliffs, are a few structures, possibly a lighthouse behind a dark-colored house.
