Photograph of Mr. and Mrs. Shatto and friends in front of a Government Bararacks at Isthmus, Catalina Island, ca.1887. The two-story clapboard-sided barracks appears to be a regular craftsman-style house, its narrow side facing the camera and its porch visible to the right. At center, on the lawn, a group of seven people are gathered, some sitting, others standing, apparently having a picnic. Along with the Shattos Mr. Whitney, his brother, and his wife are also pictured. The bay is visible with two mountain ridges in the distance.
