The following description was provided by James Gardiner: "A printed postcard showing a semidraped youth in an idyllic Sicilian landscape among flowering almond trees. After the aristocratic German photographer Baron von Gloeden arrived in Taormina in 1876 and started photographing the local landscape and inhabitants (mostly teenage men), and holding exhibitions elsewhere in Europe, Taormina became a popular gay tourist destination for wealthy aesthetes including Oscar Wilde. A large number of photographs and postcards of fully clothed young men were sold openly, and a range of nude studies were widely available under the counter".
