Description
Photograph of a lithographic drawing of Fort Sutter in Sacramento, ca.1850. Several buildings and trees are visible above the walls of the fort. An American flag waves near the entrance of the fort. Just outside, to the left of the fort is a large tree. Several people appear to be whipping their animals to get them to move. A horseback rider races across the area in front of the fort (foreground).
