Photograph of an exterior view of the Casa Verugo in Glendale, showing children and a dog, ca.1900. The adobe home, located on the east side of Brand Boulevard, is pictured at center obscured by the foliage of the tree that stands in front of it. Children and several adults are pictured at center, two young girls to either side of the tree with a young boy in a bolero suit standing directly by the trunk. A fully grown man in a lightly-colored hat sits on one of the wooden chairs behind the tree, his arm around the girl to the right. A second man sit on a chair positioned on the porch in the background. A stone well also appears to be behind the tree. Two fully grown women can be seen behind the house to the left. The dog stands aloof at farther forward, while an adolescent young boy can be seen in a bench to the far right.
