This is a vintage print signed, titled, and dated in pencil by the artist on verso; artist's wet stamp also on verso. The extensive portfolio of photographic artist Carol Westwood (1942-2011), a native New Yorker who lived in Los Angeles for many years, includes a diverse array of subjects: animals, nudes, American and European cities, and portraits. Additionally, she worked on special and still photography for numerous motion picture and television productions in Hollywood; the archive of her entertainment and celebrity images was distributed internationally by Gamma, Liaison International, Stone Images, and Getty images from 1988-2003. People have gathered outside the entrance of Union Rescue Mission, which at this time was located at 226 S. Main Street, next door to St. Vibiana's Cathedral (background, left); view is looking northeast down S. Main Street. The structure used by the mission is no longer standing.
