Description

Photograph of an exterior view of the Marquez Ranch House in Santa Monica Canyon, 1927. The eaves overhanging the one-story adobe house's porch has collapsed to the right, and the front wall seems flecked with some sort of stains. An early-style unmotorized lawnmower leans up against the wall to the left under the porch. Two nine-paned windows and a door are situated at the entrance, with longer windows visible on the adobe's left side. A tree stands partially visible in the right foreground. Forest is visible in the distance.
