Description
Photograph of group of palm trees overlooking the ocean, Santa Monica, [s.d.]. In the extreme foreground at center, two tall palm trees are visible. The two trees are nearly identical to one another. Large, thick trunks with several branches extending from the top of each tree can be seen. Behind these trees to the right, another group of two tall, identical palm trees is visible. To the left of this group, two smaller palm trees can be seen. The bodies of these palm trees are bulbous, and several long branches can be seen extending from the top. Behind the sets of trees, a primitive fence composed of wooden branches is visible. Beyond the fence, a large expanse of ocean stretching to the horizon can be seen.
