Description
Photograph of a view of Westlake Park (later MacArthur Park), showing irises in bloom along a path, ca.1920/1929. Just right of center, a large patch of irises fills the space between several trees. The dirt path is visible to the left, extending to what appears to be a paved road. In the right background, an early automobile is parked on said road.
