Description
Photograph of a friar standing in the ruins of the hall of Mission San Miguel's older church, ca.1900. The friar is pictured to the right of center, wearing his habit with his right leg raised on a the step next to him. In the background, the crumbling walls of a roofless adobe church can be seen, along with its wooden gates to the left. What appears to be a utility pole can be seen in the background. Bricks can be seen embedded in the dusty ground, making a walkway.
