Description
Photograph of Mission La Parissima Concepcion de Acuna frontal view, San Antonio, Texas, 1898. Two bell towers flank the main entrance. Above the main entrance, a triangular etching is visible alongside two rectangular windows and a small circular portal. Part of the large central dome is visible between them. A wooden rail fence around the mission contains what appear to be two horses. To the right of the mission, a series of small brick arches covered in thick grass and weeds can be seen. Two large trees devoid of foliage dominate the left and right sides of the image.
