Viewed through an open doorway, Marines form a line that extends through the Hotel del Coronado's inner courtyard during President Franklin Roosevelt's visit to San Diego. The open doorway spans the foreground. Beyond it, a concrete patio stretches across the image. On the right side of the patio, Marines form a line that faces towards the left. They stand feet apart from one another and in a row that curves back towards the left, through the hotel's courtyard. Tall palms and other foliage stand in the courtyard. Guest rooms on the far side of the courtyard stretch across the background.
