Paul de Longpre and daughter at their Hollywood home, 1908

 

1908

 

 

Painter Paul de Longpre (1855-1911) is shown at his summer house at his residence at Hollywood Boulevard and Cahuenga, built in 1901 and demolished around 1920. After an 1896 New York exhibit brought him fame, de Longpre, known for his paintings of flowers like those in the gardens around him here, moved to Hollywood in 1899. His home, summer house, and garden constituted a stop on the "Balloon Excursion" run by the Los Angeles streetcar companies. The publisher's number on the back is 3364. The divided back of this unsent card allows only a return address in what later became a message panel.
