“Burano Venezia’’ (glicee pigment print), by Rob Skinnon, at Mix Design, Guilford, Conn.

Mr. Skinnon’s photographs display his journeys through villages of Italy, hidden backroads of New England, seascapes at Martha’s Vineyard, and beyond.

Henry Whitfield House, built in 1639, is the oldest house in Connecticut and the oldest stone house in New England. It’s very English looking.
