A sepia-toned photographic image of a house and gardens, on cream-colored paper. In the foreground, on the left, is a large, raised round pool with an irregular, craggy rock at its center. To the right is a line of shrubs or trees in square planters. The plants cast dappled shadows on the ground and pool wall. Behind the rock pool is a grotto built of irregular stones, topped with a long dragon sculpture, its back arched over the seating area. A grove of spiky palm trees surrounds the grotto, against leafy trees further in the background. Beyond, to the right, is a flight of steps leading up to a terrace and massive geometric house. Much of the house is obscured by the garden plants. The house appears to be brick, with a second story band of windows beneath a curved-edge roof. An octagonal tower with oval-shaped windows rises up from the left of the house.
