Description
Photograph of a panoramic view of Monrovia from the hills, looking south, ca.1892. The large, two-story houses are separated by wide tracts of land, most of which are growing orchards. Three large, victorian-style houses are visible at the very front at center, with a smaller, one-story home to their right. No mountains are visible in the distance.
