A high-angle, black-and-white photograph shows a landscape within a garden featuring a prominent wooden arched bridge in the lower right. The bridge has a steep, semicircular curve with narrow steps and a simple wooden railing, spanning over a small body of water where several figures are visible. In the background, a variety of dense trees, including tall conifers and smaller shrubs, fill the hillside. A small wooden structure with a dark roof is partially visible among the foliage to the left of the bridge. To the left of the photograph, a vertical "KODAK GRAY SCALE" and a color calibration strip are present. Small white text at the bottom center reads: "7884 Japanese Garden, Golden Gate Park." To the right, additional text reads: "Taber Photo, S.F." and "New City Hall and Law Library in distance."
