Photograph of a birdseye view of the pillars and the door to the Sanctuary at Mission San Juan Capistrano, [s.d.]. There is a very large arch-shaped alcove at left with Romanesque pillars near the opening. An arched doorway is set into the wall at center, and there is a square window high above the door. There are broad steps leading into the alcove. Much of the spackle covering the adobe walls has deteriorated, leaving large patches in which the bricks are bare.
