Description
Photograph of landscaped Los Angeles Plaza and mission with streetcar in the background. The grassy plaza is nearly circular and has a sidewalk going around its periphery. Separating the sidewalk from the lawn is a wrought iron fence. Other walkways and trees (some quite large) are located in the plaza itself. The Mission is in the background. A few other buildings are visible: principally commercial in foreground and dwellings in background. A hill rises behind the scene. A vehicle can be seen in the street surrounding the plaza. The Vickrey-Brunswig building (built in 1888) can be seen between Pico House and the tree. Legible signs include: "Groceries".

The nearly 15,000 unique photographs of this collection contain the work of C.C. Pierce which cover the Los Angeles region city, street and architectural views, California Missions, Southwestern Native Americans, and turn-of-century Nevada, Arizona, and California. Pierce, active from 1886 to 1940, was one of the leading photographers of his day and amassed a collection of 15,000 images, including his own and those bought and copied from his contemporaries, George Wharton James and Charles Puck. The James collection contains over 2,000 images of portraits, customs, ceremonies, arts, and games of various groups of Southwestern Native Americans.
