A long, narrow rectangular lily pond runs through a lush garden, its dark water reflecting the sky and dotted with water-lily pads. Masses of pink and purple flowering shrubs bank the left side beneath tall palms and dense evergreens, while a clipped hedge and a rough stone wall or building edge close the right side. The scene is typical of the formal or subtropical garden settings popular on early twentieth-century view cards, though the picture itself carries no caption identifying the site.
Narrow light border at the edges; grainy, hand-colored printed texture with slightly worn corners.
Unused handcolored postcard; no postmark, address, or message. Divided back, white border, textured stock.
