Photograph of a view of a fountain in front of the home of Elwood Riggs in La Cañada Flintridge, July 6, 1926. The fountain can be seen in the foreground at left and consists of a large rectangular brick trough with a statue of a boy playing a horn in the middle. The tall house can be seen in the background and is light colored. Sections of the roof are covered with terracotta tiles, and several large arched windows can be seen. An adobe wall runs in front of the house. Many plants and small trees can be seen around the house and fountain.
