Description
Photograph of the burial site of Lucky Baldwin's four American Derby-winning horses, Valante (1885), Silver Cloud (1886), Emperor of Norfolk (1888), and Rey El Santa Anita (1894) at the Baldwin Ranch, ca.1910. The grave consists of a foundation made up of three square stone steps topped by a massive vertical stone Maltese Cross. There is a large bush growing near the left side of the monument, partially covering the left corner. Standing with her foot on the bottom step, a woman wearing a dress, jacket and hat gazes at the cross. In the background, there are several trees, including three palm trees, and there is a horse standing on the left side of the picture.
