Description

Photograph of an exterior view of the Arcadia Bath House in Santa Monica, ca.1890. The five-story building is in the background at left. Rows of archways can be seen on the first two stories, and a massive cupola is visible on the roof. Several chimneys protrude from the roof. The beach in front of the bath house is nearly empty, and the ocean in the foreground is very calm. Several small buildings can be seen on the beach.
