Description
Photograph of the rock formation "The Woman in White" at La Jolla, ca.1905. White light in the shape of a woman beams through a crevice between two rock faces. Smooth stones cover the ground in front. The texture of the rock walls appears to have been modified in the photograph with paint. A caption at the bottom reads "The White Lady".
