Description
Photograph of the tomb of Pio Pico at Buenavista Cemetary on North Broadway Street, ca.1906. The Romanesque mausoleum sports faux-column molding and an arched roof. The side facing the camera shows three dark rectangles, one of which appears to be a plaque of some sort. Pio Pico served as the last governor of Mexican California before the American takeover in 1846. Foliage partially obscures the right side of the tomb.
