Description
Photograph of a view of a destroyed building after the earthquake, San Francisco, 1906. The building which once stood on the raised sidewalk on the right has crumbled and spilled over the cobblestone street on the right. The fallen walls have broken into large chunks of bonded bricks and concrete slabs. A thick, metal beam lies across the debris from the right. What resembles a portion of a wooden fence lies in the foreground on the far right. A portion of a brick wall still stands in the background on the right while a large building is still in tact on the left.
