Description
Photograph of an interior view of a house, showing earthquake damage, San Francisco, 1906. The windows in the interior walls in the foreground on the far left and right have been completely shattered. The wall paper has partially peeled from the wall on the right exposing the wood paneling beneath it. A picture leans off its hook as if it is about to fall. The doorway is empty at center while the wooden door lies in the center of the floor. The wall paper is completely stripped from the left wall.
