Description
Photograph of a float at La Fiesta de Los Angeles parade, 1906. A carriage covered in long grass like plants sits on a paved street to the right of center while four women sit inside holding parasols and wearing lightly colored Victorian dresses. Two darkly colored horses pull the wagon at left while a man wearing a suit stands sideways at left. A brick building is visible behind the carriage on the right while men stand on the roof looking down. A large building that sells house supplies can be seen in the left background while the tops of peoples heads are visible just to the left of center.
