An unidentified coastal location in Greek waters, almost certainly on one of the Aegean Islands.

An unidentified coastal location in Greek waters, almost certainly on one of the Aegean Islands. The photographer is looking along the coast showing a settlement with buildings right down to the water's edge. it is washing day and clothes are draped over a stone wall in the foreground. The settlement is on a small headland and includes at least two churches. The foot of a sail attached to a boom is in the top left corner of the picture. The location was originally described at Santorini but this settlement is definitely not anywhere on Santorini Island, Greece.
