Date

1920 to 1955

Archival Collection

Description

The view of the interior of the living room of Scotty's Castle in Death Valley. The hottest place on Earth, Death Valley is located between California and Nevada. Located within the far northern region of Death Valley in Grapevine Canyon, the Death Valley Ranch, more commonly known as Scotty's Castle, is a prime example of Spanish-Mediterranean styling during the Roaring '20s and Depression '30s. Scotty's Castle was constructed by Albert Johnson with the help of Death Valley Scotty during the Great Depression, but because the men began to build onto federal land, construction was forced to a halt. To this day, Scotty's Castle remains incomplete. Transcribed onto the bottom border of the image: "Living Room - Scotty's Castle, Death Valley."
