Description
Photograph of a view of Morro Rock and Bay near San Luis Obispo, showing a grassy knoll in the foreground, ca.1900. A tree-dappled knoll is pictured in the foreground, a swath of its grass trimmed neatly at right. Across the patterns of silt in the bay below, the tall hump of Morro Rock can be seen standing with water lapping at its edges. Hills can be seen faintly in the distance.
