Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the insane asylum in Salem, Oregon, [s.d.]. A long three story brick building can be seen at center partially obscured by leaf-less trees. At least two towers are visible on the building, while a dirt road curves towards the front entrance from the right foreground. What appears to be grass can be seen on either side of the road.
