Description
Two items in the Dougal collection were assigned number 16 by the library. One (16a) is of the front of Mission Dolores. The other (16b, view over Mission Dolores towards San Francisco) was drawn the same day, and was formerly framed. These are reproduced as plates 23 and 24 of "Off for California; the letters, log and sketches of William H. Dougal, gold rush artist", edited by Frank M. Stanger (1949).
Content/DescriptionView from hill, later called Liberty Hill, looking north east across Mission Dolores to San Francisco. In the middle distance is the mission quadrangle, and the fenced line of what would become Dolores Street. At the far right of the drawing is Mission Bay. In the center distance is San Francisco harbor and Yerba Buena Island.
