Additional Details:
A woman stands on the rocky shore, gazing up at the Forty Steps, a wooden staircase ascending the cliffside. At the top of the steps, a small structure is visible. The message on the back reads, "The walk at the top goes all along the water edge and behind some of the fine residences. I had a chance to see some of the finest and poorest parts of Newport."
