Photograph of an exterior view of the Mission San Fernando Rey de Espana, showing the fountain, ca.1890. The fountain stands in the foreground, dried-out and with vegetation visible inside it. In the background, the arched adobe patio area of the mission is shown behind two draping trees. The tiles on the roof are curved terracotta. A second building of similar materials can be seen to the right, with much of its spackle gone.
