This unidentified man is standing on the circular driveway in front of Hatley Castle. Behind him, there is minimal landscaping, and no evidence of the Neptune steps, installed between 1912 and 1914 by Boston based landscape architects, Brett and Hall. Something has obscured the right side of the photographer's lens.
