Description
Photograph of four people standing before a pool and the insane asylum, in Phoenix, Arizona, [s.d.]. Two women stand beside two men in the foreground, and their reflections can be seen in a rounded pool set in the ground before them. In the background, a large two-story structure spreads out, with rails along its side. Several tall towers emerge from the structure in areas, and a tall pole in the left of the roof has been edited out with white paint. More of this editing appears in the upper left-hand corner of the picture.
