Photograph of a view of a film shoot inside of a Hollywood studio soundstage, 1940-1950. A snow-covered cabin can be seen at center. In front of it is a small footbridge over a frozen pond. A man can be seen near the cabin, while a swan is visible on the lake. In the foreground, a crew of people is aiming large spotlights and cameras at the scene.
