Description

Photograph of an exterior view of Scripps College, a Spanish-tiled building with snow-capped mountains in the distance, ca.1930. A large tree extends over the foreground while other trees shade the open yard at center from the right. The large, lightly-colored college stands behind the yard with a variety of trees decorating its front wall. The arched entrance stands at the top of a short staircase on the left. Snow dusts the mountains across the background.
