Description
Photograph of a pathway leading from the Driveway to the Grotto in Oakmont, showing Robert Murray, February, 10, 1927. Murray stands on jagged rocks in the foreground, wearing a suit and hat. The rocks sit above a lily pond that reflects the trees and various plants above it. Behind the pond lies a street at center. Electrical poles line the far side of the street while an empty field lies behind it. A large house can be seen in the center background while tree-covered hills stand in the distance.
