Photograph of three women outside of the Pio Pico adobe on Whittier Road, ca.1900. At left, one of the women is sitting sidesaddle on a dark horse, holding her hat in her hand; the other two are standing in front of the horse in the center. Behind them, the adobe bricks that make up the wall of the house can be seen through the missing spackle, while in front of them are tall plants that reach up to the height of the horse's shoulder. There are two, wood-framed windows on the wall, and the wooden shutters of the one on the right are open.
