Description
Photograph of a fountain at San Francisco's Panama-Pacific International Exposition in 1915. A large, circular pedestal holds a statue depicting a man on a horse at center. Water shoots out the pedestal and sends streams over the statues below. The statues below can only be seen in silhouette as lights from the large building in the background shine brightly on the night scene.
