Photograph of seven people at work around a table, near cameras, or an easel at the Pierce and Blanchard Plaza Photo Gallery, 515 North Main Street, Los Angeles, ca.1890. Pictured are (left to right): photographers Eddie McConnell (behind large camera), James A. Blanchard, a Mexican man who went to Manila and started a photography business, L.M. Clendenen (at easel), Blanchard, Miss Blanchard and Gould (at small camera). Behind the group a large sign reading "Plaza Gallery" leans against a wall on which hangs five photographs.; The Plaza Gallery was located about 100 feet opposite the Los Angeles Plaza in an adobe building south of the Los Angeles Mission known as the Andres Pico residence but not owned by him. This location was first started by Shoemaker (?) and afterwards run by A.C. Golsh, then by Bertrand & Stine, and then by Pierce & Blanchard. Pierce dissolved the Gallery and with A.E. McConnell moved to the north part of the same building and conducted a view and commercial business known as Tourist View Depot -- Pierce & McConnell.

约1890年拍摄于洛杉矶北主街515号皮尔斯与布兰查德广场照相馆（Pierce and Blanchard Plaza Photo Gallery）的合影，画面中七名工作人员围桌、相机旁或画架前开展工作。出镜人员从左至右依次为：站在大型相机后的摄影师埃迪·麦康奈尔（Eddie McConnell）、詹姆斯·A·布兰查德（James A. Blanchard）、一名前往马尼拉并开设摄影工作室的墨西哥男子、站在画架前的L·M·克兰德宁（L.M. Clendenen）、布兰查德、布兰查德小姐以及站在小型相机后的古尔德（Gould）。人群后方有一块写有"Plaza Gallery（广场照相馆）"的大型招牌倚靠在墙面上，墙面还悬挂着五张照片。
该广场照相馆（Plaza Gallery）坐落于洛杉矶广场（Los Angeles Plaza）对面约100英尺处，位于洛杉矶教会（Los Angeles Mission）南侧的一座土坯建筑内，该建筑曾被称为安德烈斯·皮科宅邸（Andres Pico residence），但并非为安德烈斯·皮科所有。该店铺最初由舒梅克（Shoemaker，？）创办，随后先后由A·C·戈尔什（A.C. Golsh）、贝特朗与斯坦（Bertrand & Stine）以及皮尔斯与布兰查德（Pierce & Blanchard）接手经营。皮尔斯（Pierce）解散该照相馆后，与A·E·麦康奈尔（A.E. McConnell）迁至同一建筑的北侧区域，经营起名为"Tourist View Depot（游客观景驿站）"的观景与商业业务，即皮尔斯与麦康奈尔工作室（Pierce & McConnell）。
