Photograph of fishermen in their rowboat in Catalina Harbor, ca.1886-1887. Seven fishermen stand or sit outside or in the beached boat at center, tending to it. A second boat is docked in the distance to the left, while a two-masted ship navigates the harbor in the distance to the left, in front of the larger of the two rock faces that comprise the strait at the center of the horizon.
