[Backyards of Three Houses]

[Backyards of Three Houses]

Hoffman, Peter B.

Appears to be the backyards of three houses. On the left hand side of the photo is a tree, and under this tree, is a double swing with two benches facing one another. There is a small walkway by the side of the swings which may go from the back of a hidden house on the left, to the back of the yard where there is a fence. The first visible house is a large dark colored house with a small back porch, and in one of the windows is a sign that reads "ICE". To the right of this house is a lighter house, possibly white or beige with a small roof over the backdoor and staircase, where a person wearing a white shirt is seen sitting on the steps. This backyard connects to the other backyard and there is also another double swing. Next to this house is a house that is lighter than the first house, possibly light brown, with a stone foundation visible. This house extends from behind the previous house, towards the right of the photograph. There is a tree in front of the back fence with a small wooden staircase leading up to the wire fence. The fence sits above the yard and is thin metal rods with points like arrows pointing up.
