Description
Photograph of the Greek Theatre in Griffith Park, [s.d.]. Rows of benches can be seen extending from the right foreground downwards to the stage at left. Behind the stage is a building meant to look like a Greek structure, with four columns visible in front at left and at right. Railings separate the benches into three sections from front to back, and at least three sections from left to right. Stairs can be seen to the left of the benches, while a wall borders the stairs to the left. Mountains can be seen behind the theater.
