Additional Commentary - A southern view of the mansion of Bahjí’. On the far left the Tea House of 'Abdu'l-Bahá can be seen. Above the gate one can see the covered balcony which runs along the southern and western sides of the Mansion. The bluish-colored apartments running along the eastern side of the Mansion were constructed and occupied by the Covenant-breakers. They were pulled down a few months after the passing of Shoghi Effendi, who died in November 1957. (A copy of this photo appears on p. 363 of Bahá’u’lláh: The King of Glory.)

Additional pictures of the mansion then and now are here.
