Description
Photograph of an old Catholic cemetery on North Broadway and Buena Vista Street, Los Angeles, ca.1920. The grass has grown tall and thick from neglect and only the tombs and taller headstones of the graveyard can be seen. At center, a tall headstone is surrounded by a wrought-iron fence while still taller headstones in the shapes of both obelisks and crosses are visible in the background. The small, concrete fence that appears to mark the boundary of the cemetery is visible in the foreground in disrepair. Trees are visible in the background.
