Photograph of the fountain and two tall old trees in front of Mission San Fernando, California, ca.1882. The fountain appears to be dry. A long series of arches support the tile roof over the exterior corridor which runs the length of the building. Some of the stucco has fallen from the bricks at the end of an adjacent building and from the feet of the columns supporting the arches. A horse stands in the background at right.
