Description
Photograph of a rudimentary observatory on Mount Wilson, [s.d.]. The small observatory in the center of the image is composed of a darkly colored building attached to a lightly colored edifice shaped like a cylinder. The rudimentary observatory looks like a cabin with a silo attached to its back end. A pole stems from the house with wires splaying in all directions to various points on the ground. Rocks, bushes, trees, and dirt can be seen in the foreground and surrounding the building.
