Description
Photograph of a birdseye view (painting?) of workers on the Patterson Ranch in Ventura County, ca.1900. In the foreground, two men and a young boy are pictured driving a horse-drawn cart out of a garden of some kind which is enclosed by a post-and-rail fence. To the left, the gate to the fence is open, beyond which a man in a suit and hat is visible looking at one of the fence posts. Beyond this, a large assortment of men with hitched and un-hitched horses can be seen in the dirt space between the three two-story barns on the left and the two smaller, one-story wooden buildings to the left. In the far background, a two-story house can be seen partially obscured by willow trees.
