Photograph of an exterior view of a dilapidated Mission San Fernando, [s.d.]. The end of the adobe mission is at center. There is a small room on the end of the building, and its terracotta roof is sagging. Two men stand in front of the building and face the viewers. Behind the small room is the end of the mission. An archway leading to a covered walkway can be seen at left, and the peak of the roof is at center. Much of the spackle over the adobe bricks is missing.
