“The Great Picture” depicts a panoramic view of a portion of the former Marine Corps Air Station El Toro, which in the early 1940s had been converted from being the largest lima bean field in North America to the largest Marine Corps air station on the West Coast.
'The Great Picture,' a 31-foot-by-111-foot photograph of a control tower and twin runways at the former Marine Corps Air Station El Toro, is the subject of an exhibit at Palm Court Arts Complex in Irvine.
