Description
A panoramic view of the harbor at Avalon, on Santa Catalina Island. The photograph was taken from somewhere along the northwestern shore of the bay, with the city of Avalon on the far right. There is a boat with a striped canopy and seven or eight people on it being rowed across the center of the image. There are also a few people standing or sitting on the shore. There are several unoccupied small boats on the water, as well as a three mast sailing ship, and few sailboats with their sails up. Writing in white at the bottom reads "Avalon Bay, Catalina. ; 1904."
