Description

Photograph of a man and a young girl in a rowboat at Echo Park Lake, 1924. The boat is shown at center with the man rowing to the right. The young girl can be seen to the left. Her dark clothing appears to be blending with the boat and water. In the background, just skew of two spidery trees, a woman can be seen sitting on a bench near the shore. A mown swath of grass leads backwards from the bench until it meets a line of trees. What appears to be a wooden bridge is visible to the right in this area.
