Description
Photograph of a drawing by Edward Vischer depicting the ruins of the Mission Santa Ynez as seen from the south, April 22, 1865. The ruins of the south end of the mission and its inner corridors are shown, a portion of patio standing at center with adobe archways and a collapsing wood roof. Donkeys, drawn by "W.H.H." stand in the foreground along a dirt path. Goats and sheep stand to the left and the right a little farther back, and the silhouettes of two people can be seen in the distance to the left. A short brick wall is partially visible in the right foreground. The text below the image reads: "Supplementary drawings of Mission ruins, 1873", "Donkeys © by W.H.H., Vischer", and "Ruins of the south-end and inner corridors of Santa Inez Mission Building, our night quarters with the mail agent, April 22, 1865.".
