Description
Photograph of Herbert Rolf next to a joshua tree in a grove west of Fairmont in West Antelope Valley, [s.d.]. The thick tree stands at center with small puffs of spiny leaves on its rough, bending limbs. Herbert Rolf stands to the left with his hands closed in fists at his sides. He wears a dark shirt and tucks his pants into his tall, dark boots. The dusty terrain around him is spotted with short, dry plants. Mountains stand faintly in the distance.
