Scope and content
Envelope labelled [in Elizabeth Trevelyan's hand?] 'Negative of photograph of R. C. T in G. Bottomley's room', but no negatives present. Five photographs showing a small group of people at a simple wooden house or hut may possibly show Bottomley.
Several of the photographs show what looks like Italian scenery; one is certainly of the Fontana del Duomo at Taormina. Some of the others may show the gardens of Florence Cacciola Trevelyan at Taormina, and it is possible that some of the interior scenes are also from her house there.
Carte de visite of George Otto Trevelyan, pen in hand, in middle-age. By John Y Hunter, 59, High St, Hawick and Bongate Jedburgh,
