Show People gather around the stairs and entrance of Ferry Hall. The photo has been taken from a northwest angle. Two rows are positioned on the grass parallel to the foundation. Another three people, behind the line and two the left, are oriented along the perpendicular stairway. As the line moves to the right, the people are turned away from the camera more. Other people cluster on the stairs immediately behind them, some standing up in line on each of the three tiers of the stone wall alongside the stairs. Most of the people in this picture are middle-aged or older, but there are a few children present. In the distance, there is a line of tall poplar trees covered in leaves and the roof of a building. The background is mostly composed of sky. |
