Photograph, Cabinet

Boudoir-sized cabinet card bearing a sepia-toned photograph of a northeastern view along Belle Isle's Central Avenue, taken from southwest Bridge No. 6, the rustic wooden bridge which crosses the Loop Canal. A round traffic island with a stump at its center is in the road in the foreground of the photo. The footpaths along the side of bridge above the canal are covered. A pavilion stands on the left side of the road.

The photo is mounted on a beige cardstock card. "This is the entrance to the park from the bridge" is handwritten on the verso in black pen.
