This is a black and white photo of the Yugoslav-born Italian actor Sylva Koscina, standing with an unidentified companion, looking over an elevated street view from Connaught Avenue in Cork City. Koscina is wearing a Glen-check two-piece suit and is shown fixing her short dark hair with her left hand whilst smiling and looking out into the distance. Her companion, dressed in a light-coloured blouse with a festival pin attached, is also admiring the view. Connaught Avenue is not far from University College Cork and is known for its Boer War Memorial which was erected in memory of those who lost their lives during the South African war of 1899 to 1902.
