Description
Photograph of a drawing by Edward Vischer depicting a farewell in front of the earthquake-ruined Mission San Juan Capistrano, 1842. A man in a poncho and hat tends three horses while two other men shake hands at center, the ruins of the mission in the right background. A shack with a thatched roof is visible to the left and a portion of the mission's aqueduct can be seen between them. A man drives horses in the background to the right, while three other people lounge near a cart to the left. Text underneath the image reads "In Memory of R. Fray Jose Maria de Zalvidea Our Leavetaking in Nov. 1842."
