Description
Photograph of the side of the Griffith Park Planetarium with Los Angeles in the background, [s.d.]. The light-colored, domed observatory building can be seen at left. A narrow walkway can be seen spiralling around the building, passing under several archways in the process. The crest of a hill is visible in the foreground at right, while the urban sprawl of Los Angeles is visible far in the distance at right.
