Description

Near the center of the image is the Mission Revival/Islamic style Hollywood residence and art gallery once owned by artist Paul de Longpre´ (1855-1911). The home, located on the west side of Cahuenga Blvd. at Hollywood Blvd., is on property Longpre´ obtained from Mrs. Wilcox Beveridge after he moved to Los Angeles in 1889.
