Description
Photograph of an exterior view of First Presbyterian Church in San Jose, California, ca.1900. The church is lightly shaded with a darkly covered roof and trim and a short staircase that leads to the castle-like entrance at center. Stained glass windows can be seen in a row in the wall on the right while a giant tower presents a cross further down the road on the right. Several people stand on the steps leading from the tower on the right to the sidewalk that runs along the far side of the street in front of the church. Trees can be seen in the background on the far right while a grassy yard sits on the far left.
