Description
Photograph of a priest or monk staring down at a grave at the San Gabriel cemetery, December 4, 1929. A man wearing a darkly colored religious robe stands in the center while facing right and looking down at a grave site. The grave has a tall headstone while a fence forms a rectangle around where the body is placed. The ground below is barren dirt covered in leaves and twigs. Headstones and crosses surround the land into the background while trees can be seen all over the background.
