Photograph of an exterior view of a church, showing earthquake damage, Oakland, [s.d.]. The church stands at center where two streets intersect. It is a large, brick building with two arched entryways and many arched windows in its tall walls. The roof is jagged with the many peaked towers which stand above. The corner of the church at center has crumbled to the street below leaving an open hole to the interior. Two women view the rubble from the sidewalk across the street on the far left while a man in a suit and hat stands just next to it on the far right.
