Description
Photograph of an exterior view of St. Ignauis Church on Vanessa Avenue, showing earthquake damage, San Francisco, [s.d.]. Debris is scattered along the street in the foreground with the church beyond the street on the far left. The church appears to be intact on the near side where palm trees stand in front its tall walls. Further back, pieces of the front wall have fallen to a pile in front of the entrance. More earthquake damage can be seen in the buildings surrounding the area in the background. People view the damage from the street on the right.
