Description
Photograph of a white marble statue portraying pharoah's daughter and baby Moses in a fountain at Forest Lawn, Glendale, 1930-1950. The statue of a kneeling woman, dressed in a Greek robe fastened at her left shoulder and off on the right shoulder poses with her right hand on baby Moses' head, and her left hand at her breast. The nude image of baby Moses appears in a basket at her feet. Several trails of fountain water sail through the air, while the dark waters of the placid pool surround the statue. In the background, a field sits in the shadow of several large trees.
