Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds.
An out-of-focus and slightly lopsided photograph of three unknown persons standing in some park's garden in San Jose. The trio stands in a row left-of-center and appear to be sloping downward to the left. A dirt pathway extends from the bottom edge towards the right and then branches off into 3 narrower pathways. The group stands in the leftmost path. Starting at left, a man stands; he is partially obscured by foliage in the garden. To his right, two women stand; both look to the camera and carry jackets in their arms. A group of cacti and desert plants grow in a cluster to the right of the trio. Plants and trees line the pathways. Trees stand in the background.
