Description
A black-and-white digital image of a woman posing in front of the Taylor family home on Martha's Vineyard. The young woman is seated on a large rock at the proper left of the photograph. She is wearing a light-colored top and dark-colored shorts, with her hands resting in her lap, and she is smiling. Several large rocks are lining a sidewalk that leads up to a house that is visible in the background. To the proper right of the young woman, a garden hose runs across the sidewalk, is draped over another stone, and extends into the grass. The photograph is out of focus.
