Frank Matranga was commissioned to create a mural with a historical theme for the La Verne Library in 1985. Composed of glazed ceramic tiles, this mural in the foyer of the La Verne Library is described by the artist as a “very traditional design" compared to the more abstract works he made for other County libraries. The mural features motifs and local area landmarks, such as the Church of the Brethren, the Lordsburg Hotel and the Lordsburg depot with citrus trees and mountains in the background.
