Summary
A monochrome photograph of a group of six people, five females and one male, standing in a line and holding hands. The group includes Gioconda Mary Hulton (1887-1940) at the extreme left when looking at the photograph, holding a tennis racquet in her right hand, Edith Teresa Hulton (1890-1972), standing fourth from the left and their mother Costanza (Zina) Hulton (née Mazini) (1863-1939), standing fifth from the left. The other members of the group are identified as Anne, Bertha and Baron Bianchi who is holding a cane in his left hand. All the members of the group are wearing hats and a small dog is visible in the centre of the group. They are standing in front of a white building with arches. Written in ink underneath the photograph: 'Mogliano Nov 1901 - Gio, Anne, Bertha, Bim, Zina, Baron Bianchi' and 'done by Bssa Salvadori'. Photograph 8 of 134 contained in Volume 2 of Costanza Hulton's personal photograph albums (1901 - 1906). 'Bim' is short for 'Bimbele' the Hulton family nickname for Edith Teresa Hulton. Edith Teresa Hulton became Lady Berwick when she married Thomas Henry Noel-Hill, 8th Baron Berwick of Attingham (1877-1947) on 30 June 1919. 'Anne' is Anne Bianchi, the daughter of Baron Ferdinand Bianchi. Teresa Hulton’s autograph book (Shropshire Archives ref 112/22/8/1/1) shows that the surname of 'Bertha' is Veltheim; she may have been Anne Bianchi’s governess. This photograph was taken by Baroness Salvadori in Mogliano Veneto, a town in the province of Treviso in northern Italy, located halfway between Venice and Treviso, where the Bianchi had an estate.
