A large audience of about 100 or more people sit together in the auditorium at the Los Angeles County General Hospital during the hospital's dedication ceremony. They are viewed at an angle from the front, facing right, and from a slightly elevated perspective. In the middle of the audience, at right, a camera stands above the seated attendees. Nurses stands in front of the auditorium's door on the back-left wall. Small and deeply inset windows asymmetrically dot the upper portion of the wall at left. Pane-glass windows line the upper portion of the back-right wall.
