View looking up a row of plant-covered arches of people in Elizabeth Park, Hartford and West Hartford. A building, probably a gazebo, is partially visible in the background. Several of the women hold umbrellas. Elizabeth Park was opened in 1897, and comprises the former estate of Charles M. Pond. It was named after his wife, Elizabeth. The park is 101 acres, 82 in West Hartford and 19 acres in Hartford.
