Description
View of the grand lagoon in Venice, California, looking towards the northeast. Tourists dressed in early 20th century style clothing ride in a gondola on the lagoon. The gondola is adorned with an American flag and a lantern. Small boats and canoes float near the gondola. A lampost appears in the foreground. Two arched footbridges cross the Coral Canal on the left and the Lion Canal on the right. A boathouse appears in the background on the right side of the image. The yellow building partially visible on the left is the Antler Hotel which was built in 1906.
