Exterior view which includes W. Averell Harriman on the right and Nikita Khrushchev standing next to him in hat. It is believed that the picture was taken at the government's guest dacha Ogarevo located west of Moscow, Russia. They may be standing by the Moskva River. Others in the photograph from the left include perhaps Andrei Gromyko with hat and Frol Kozlov. Charles W. Thayer accompanied Harriman as a guide and confidant on the trip which took place May 12 - June 26, 1959. Harriman went as a special foreign correspondent for the North American Newspaper Alliance (NANA).
