Photograph of H. H. West standing in front of the frog pond at Boston Common. He stands at the man-made pond's near edge at center. He faces slightly left as he looks to the camera. The large pond sits behind him in partial view. It enters frame from the lower right corner and curves back to the left. A wide walkway runs around the perimeter of the pond. The walkway stretches along the bottom edge and curves around the pond as it extends into the distance at left. Trees line the walkway as it encircles the pond. Beyond the park, part of a building is visible above the treetops in the background at right. Four punched holes line the top edge at left.
