A black and white reproduction photograph of the north side of La Casa Nueva looking west, ca. 1920s, taken in 1995. The north facade of the house is at the far left with the bottom portion of the Master Bedroom's wood balcony at the top. At the right of this is the bottom of the iron balcony railing at the Main Hall's second floor. Below this is the front doorway with decorative plaster work around it. At the right of this are some of the French doors to the Music Room and at the left are the north doors of the Living Room. The room's screen doors are open at the far left. At the front is the porch which has a low plastered wall. At the far left and right corners of the wall are plaster cactus and palm designs. On the ground at the right of the image is construction debris and the trunk of a palm tree. Another palm is at the left of the foreground. Across the background is the home's perimeter wall. A few structures and some trees are visible in the distance. Written in blue pencil on the top left corner of the back is, "Ralph / Carol Temple Collection / May 1995 / North Side of La Casa Nueva looking west." Contact sheets for the image are items .35-37 with the negatives being items .2.1-.17. The artifact has no visible sign of damage or wear and is therefore in good condition.
