Description
Photograph of a citrus exhibit in Toronto that shows a bear, hundreds of oranges and a painting by Chris Siemer of Los Angeles, 1927. Hundreds of oranges drape the walls and the sides of the display table of the exhibit. Baskets of various fruits sit on a bed of grass on top of the table. A doll posed as a dancer stands behind the baskets while a bear stands on two legs behind it. Paintings hang from the wall of oranges on either side of the bear. A sign that reads "Los Angeles County California" hangs over the bear.
