Exterior view of an Indian bath house in Palm Springs, ca.1920

Abstract

Photograph of the exterior of an Indian bath house in Palm Springs, ca.1920. There are signs on both sides of the bath house; they are not identical, but both read "Time Limit 20 Min do not use soap". The palm tree encircled-house itself is plaster-covered with wood paneling towards the top and there are steps leading to a door below ground level on the right side of the building, while on the left there is a wall that is leaning at an angle. In front of the bath house are several large palm trees, growing close together in such a way that it appears that there are two trees with multiple trunks
