Joyful San Francisco Victorian in Purple with Rainbow like Gay Flag
-
Description
A prismatic rainbow symbolic of the Gay Flag crowns a pair of purple San Francisco Victorians, adding color and meaning. The whole image exudes a sense of joy that matches the beautiful detail of the architecture. An American Flag in a ground-floor window unifies the composition and trumpets the symbolism of the two flags - that San Francisco is "Gay America."
