Description

Photograph of a view of an Echo Park lake with two people standing on the shore, ca.1900. The smooth water of the lake is at right, and a small peninsula of land juts out into it from the left. Standing on this land are a woman in a long, light-colored dress and a young boy in a dark suit. They are standing next to a large plant with bushy flowers. The far side of the lake is lined with trees, and there is a ridge behind them. Perched precariously on top of the ridge are three two-story houses.
