Description
Photograph of a view of the "triple arch and ruined tower" (or church bell tower?) of the stone church at Mission San Juan Capistrano, Orange County, ca.1900. The large arched recess appears to serve as a stage or an alter. There are about nine arched recesses in the back wall. Punctured holes are visible almost uniformly between the arched recesses in the wall. Fallen adobe bricks and rocks cover the ground (at right). Tall grass covers the ground at left. Caption reads: "triple arch and ruined chancel, San Juan Capistrano Mission."
