The background of both panels is a coastal landscape. In the foreground is a Spanish conquistador and two Gabrleleno Indians meeting at the shore. In the other panel (mural id 173) modern-day Santa Monicans enjoy some of the region's many outdoor leisure pursuits. A circular petrochrome of the City of Santa Monica's official seal is set into the center of the lobby floor.The panels flank the front entrance to Santa Monica City Hall.
