There is only one Corbella in the 1911 census, Luigi Corbella, 43, House Dealer, a visitor at (I believe) the Imperial Hotel. on the Mall, Waterford.
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
Niall McAuley Definitely the Imperial Hotel, Niall. Wonder what an Italian born House Dealer was doing in Waterford? He was there for the census night of Sunday, 2 April 1911, and seemingly back (or still staying) at the Imperial Hotel 3 years later in May 1914. From looking at other Poole photos of Mr Corbella, he was also at the Imperial back in September 1903. Think we might be able to take it that he lived there? Or at least used it as his base when in Waterford?

Are the older girls wearing silk stockings?
Swordscookie said:
blackpoolbeach I think you're right there, those look like silk stockings to me. I also note on closer scrutiny that the two older girls have similar brooches or pins in their dresses. Probably a gift for playing their part. [http://www.flickr.com/photos/69751036@N08] Kevin, as regards the mat/rug/carpet the Poole photographs have many examples of these being laid out to save the footwear and dresses of the participants. Note the young ladies lovely shoes? They were probably being save from the dirt of the lawn and footpath.

That doesn't look like the front door at Power Hall, which can be seen in other nli photos here and here.

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/69751036@N08] Hi Kevin! Yes, as Swordscookie swordscookie says, probably to protect their shoes. And mats or rugs are a hallmark of Poole Photographic Studio outdoor photos. This one is very snazzy...

excellent photo!
Juan Antonio Armijo Gaete said:
Excelent portrait!
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
Tammy Thank you and flickcide! Must have been a real man-about-town... Wondering if any fashion experts know whether these clothes are any way location-identifiable? Perhaps this young chap went off to the States to make his fortune, and sent a photo home?? That's not to say that he couldn't be a stay at home fashion plate, but there's just something about this photo...
