| Scope and Content | The original description in the SPHS register reads: "Naxos: the Colossus". |
| Notes | A matching caption for an image appears in the 1902 list of photographs of sites in the reference collection. It certainly dates prior to 1904 when a group of images, SPHS 3254 to 3261, views on Naxos by E.A. Gardner many of which were included in the 1904 slide catalogue. |
