A photograph of four people eating, captioned "picnicing under the oranges and lemons." These are visitors to Egypt in 1908. The meal seems to include bread and wine, and there is also a large can that seems to be labelled "chocolates," possibly from the well-known Irish Albanian confectionary maker Hadji Bey. From an album of photos from a 1908 voyage to the Mediterranean on the CARPATHIA.
