    I don’t really know what I’m looking at as far as the structure in front of the reddish building? Came from the Italian house I was at last week. Doesn’t look un-Mediterranean to me, so I’m guessing Italy? Late 19th-1920’s?

    Looks like agave plants which would be Mexico or Southwest US. Building looks Adobe style, so Southwest US. Paint on board looks like it might be acrylic to me...but it depends on how shiny it might be to you in person, since it is thinned and I might be seeing general glare. If acrylic, definitely post 1950s.

    Looks late 20th to me in general style.

    Ditto for Italy. 20th century imo.
    Those parasol pines are very western Mediterranean.
    The building seems to have a fortified base, so probably a long history as well.
