A digital print color photograph of a red painted house sitting in an otherwise empty lot. The house appears on the left side of the image, surrounded by mature trees. A street or driveway runs from in front of the house across to the right side of the image. The house consists of two stories, and is a square shape with four straight sides and a peaked roof. The house's first floor is a few feet below street level and a set of steps runs from the street to the front door of the main floor. The house has a facade of thin, irregular sized brick or stone and has been entirely covered in red paint except for the white trim along the roof and white showing amongst the edges of the stone.
