Description
Photograph of a drawing by Edward Vischer depicting cattle-drivers traveling towards the Mission Santa Barbara, May 6, 1865. The mission is visible at the foot of the mountains in the distance, while several cowboys on horseback drive a herd of cattle towards it from the pueblo. Several unsaddled horses, one of which is a foal, graze by a cluster of short trees to the left. The text below the image reads: "View of the Convent Santa Barbara from the Town". Picture file card asserts: "Cattle drove (northward-bound for market) passing the Valley of Santa Barbara" and "In lower left hand Vischer, May 2, 1865.".
