Description

Photograph of orange groves and palm trees in Southern California, ca.1900. A thin, dirt road lined with tall grass runs across the foreground with palm trees and orange groves alternating in a row on the yard to the left. While the dark orange groves spotted with bright oranges continue in rows to the left behind that front row, the tall, thin palm trees with dead leaves hanging below them only stand in the front row. Low, dark clouds emerge over the groves from the mountain side on the right.
