Photograph of an exterior view of Rancho Agua de Ojo Coche, Santa Clara County, [s.d.]. The lightly-colored building stands at center with a dark door on the porch at the right and large rectangular windows on the visible side. Plant life climbs up the posts of the porch underneath the shingled roof while tall plants and bushes cover the yard in the foreground. Skeletal trees stand in the background with a lightly-colored wooden fence on the right. "Rancho Agua de Ojo Coche means 'The Water of the Pig's Eye' or 'The Eye of the Water at the Place of the Pig.' It is about 20 miles south of San Jose and is now a 5000 acre cattle ranch owned by Mrs. Cochrans".
