From This Day Forward celebrates the progressive optimism of California. After establishing itself as a cultural and industrial capital not only within America but worldwide during the 20th century, California has continued to be a beacon of hope for those in search of Eden. The “Spirit of California”, Queen Calaifa, is depicted as watching over the state referencing similar iconography to that of Diego Rivera’s 1931 mural Allegory of California. From the booming cities to the thriving agriculture and industry this land truly has something for everyone.
