Description
A finely detailed hand-colored wood engraving of Los Angeles, published in Harper's Weekly in 1890 and drawn by noted illustrator Charles Graham, presents a lively multi-view panorama of the city during its early period of expansion.
This composition highlights eleven identified locations across Los Angeles, including:
Lawn on Figueroa Street
The Crocker Mansion
A Typical House
Senorita in Roses
The Plaza and the Mission Church
Palms on San Pedro Street
View on Spring Street
Avenue of Palms, Longstreet Place
Looking toward Hill Street
City Hall and Library
View of the City, Looking Southeast
Together, these scenes create a rare visual record of late-19th-century Los Angeles architecture, streetscapes, gardens, and civic landmarks, capturing the atmosphere of a rapidly growing Western city just before the turn of the century.
