Description
Photograph of Mission San Juan Capistrano, showing entrance to bull pens, California, ca.1900. In the extreme foreground, large weeds can be seen. At center, a series of deteriorating, stone arches can be seen. In the background, a crumbling stone wall is visible with an additional archway at its center. Looking through the ruined archway, a gated entrance to the arena for the bulls can be seen.
