Description
A woman is climbing on a rope, as two additional women stand below her at 5152 La Vista Court in Hollywood. Artist Finn Frolich reaches out to her from a second-story window. Frolich, who had been friends with writer Jack London, designed and built the house circa 1925, which includes a frieze of London near the front entrance. The property has sometimes been referred to as “London House.” In 2017 the property was successfully landmarked as Los Angeles City Historical Cultural Monument No. 1143.
