Description

Photograph of the Cliff Drive in Santa Cruz, ca.1900. The water crashes on the jagged rock cliffs in light, misty bursts on the left. Dark plants line the edge of the cliffs with a winding road further inland. The thin road is framed on the right with a short, lightly-colored fence which divides it from the wooded area on the far right. A smooth field can be seen in the background on the right with a faint mountain side in the distance.
