Description
Photograph of a man waving his hat on the riverbank of the San Gabriel River, ca.1950. The rippling river at center runs over the jagged rocks that sit in its bed as it reflects the shining rocks on either bank. A tree hangs over the water in the foreground while the boulders frame the water beyond it. The man stands on one boulder on the far bank with a satchel across his chest and his hat held above him. Behind him stands a steep, tree-covered hill on the right and a small hill on the left littered with pebbles.
