About this postcard

A painterly color view of tall eucalyptus trees along El Camino Real, with a sunlit clearing and blue hills in the distance. The image reproduces a painting by Anna Hills, a California artist associated with the early twentieth-century Laguna Beach art colony. El Camino Real was the historic road linking California's missions, and eucalyptus, introduced to the state in the nineteenth century, became a familiar roadside tree.
