Description
Photograph of people sitting in the shade of large trees in Pershing Square, Los Angeles, ca.1900-1909. Many people, including men and women of various ages, are seated on the grass at center. Tall trees all around them cast large shadows on the ground, hiding many of the people in darkness. A wide dirt path runs across the foreground. A man in a suit at left and a woman in a light skirt at right are looking straight ahead.
