Photograph of the exterior view of the C.B. Crocker Art Gallery in Sacramento, ca.1905. The building, over three-stories tall, features Greek-like architecture. Several staircases lead from the street to the main entrance. Two light posts flank the final set of stairs leading up to the covered porch. The facade and the side of the house feature large pediments. Arched and rectangular windows are outlined with decorative moldings. A fence surrounds the perimeter of the property. A horse is tied to the fire-hydrant(?) in front of the building.
