Aimee Semple McPherson's home, Lake Elsinore, between 1929-1939

Description: A low, plaster wall stretches across the foreground. At far right, a domed entrance stands in partial view. In front of it, the front of a car noses into frame in the lower right corner. Beyond the low wall, landscaped grounds extend across the image and up a slope towards a large, Moorish-revival style home. Aimee's Castle is viewed from a low-angle perspective and stands in the near distance at center. A domed tower rises from the center of the building as do 3 minarets.
