Photograph depicts the second Lumberman's Arch monument in Stanley Park. The first Lumberman's Arch was built by the Lumberman's Union as a replica of the Parthenon in 1912 to mark the visit of the Duke of Connaught, the Governor General of Canada. It was originally located along his procession route, at Homer and Pender, and was later moved to the Park. In 1947, the structure, having succumbed to rot, was torn down and in 1952, was replaced with the current structure.
Arch structure consisting of four logs; three adults and two children gathered around the arch; Vancouver harbour in the background.
