Description

Photograph of Galveston County Courthouse in Galveston, TX. A road runs along the bottom edge of the image, separated from the sidewalk parallel to it by a line of grass. Towards the left side of the photo, the sidewalk splits off into three paths that head left, right, and center through patches of grass occupied by bushy trees and palm trees of varying heights. At the center of the intersection of the sidewalks is a short planter with a bush of red flowers in it. In a nearby patch of grass is a black sign on a short pole with the Texas state silhouette at its top and indistinguishable text below. On that same patch of grass, near the right edge of the photo, is a simple white bench with a person in a yellow shirt sitting on it. A short distance into the image, beyond the grass and trees, is the courthouse building. A short rectangular building with walls that are white on the bottom half and red on the top half sits in front of a much taller building that is also rectangular, though entirely white in color. The shorter building has one row of windows clustered near the building's center, which is shaded by a flat structure held up by rectangular columns. The taller building has four visible rows of tall windows with thin rectangular lines between each column of windows. Both the shorter and taller building have flat roofs, though the taller building has a small, short rectangular structure appearing above its top edge.
