Description

Photograph of Visalia County court house, Tulare County, California, ca.1912. The three-story stone building is topped with a tower with a dome, on top of which a statue is perched. Two other statues of figures stand on the peak of two eaves of the roof. Most of the windows have opened awnings shading them. The portico entry, at left, is approached by a grand stairway. Benches, trees (including one tall palm), and bushes stand in the grassy lawn surrounding the courthouse. An automobile with driver and a passenger is parked (?) adjacent to the curb, at right.
