DescriptionGennaro Capobianco and other men, women, and children, probably including family members and friends, are in and around a swimming pool behind a large half-timbered house with a balcony. A waterfall falls over the top of a grotto and cascades down a slope into the pool. In some photographs the people wear bathing suits or trunks. In some they wear t-shirts and shorts. A small child who appears to be Asian-American plays with a beach ball. Some photographs were taken at night by flashlight. Trees and woods are in the background of some pictures. One picture shows automobiles parked in front of a garage.
NotesSubject Note: The photographs depict Gennaro Capobianco's house and pool on Avon Mountain.
