DescriptionUnstretched. Image of an arch bridge over a lake in Central Park, New York. The bridge (middle) is complemented by its reflection in the lake (bottom middle) and framed by trees (middle left and right). Additional depth is observable front-to-back, with the bridge at the foreground, then lake through the arch bridge, rising into a line of trees, and buildings in the background. There are no figures in the image, and mixed shades of green, turquoise, and blue give a peaceful, nostalgic view of the park.

Support the understanding and appreciation of the Japanese American experience.
