EDITORS COMMENTS
Mission San Juan Capistrano, located in Orange County, California, USA, is depicted in this stunning hand-colored photograph taken by William H. Jackson in approximately 1899. The mission, founded by Father Junípero Serra in 1775 and named after Saint John of Capistrano, is a significant historical landmark of the Baroque architectural style from the colonial period in America. The mission's arched entrance, adorned with intricate detailing, stands proudly against the backdrop of the rugged Californian landscape. The mission, once a vibrant center of Christianity and community, now shows signs of being overgrown and ruined. Nature has reclaimed much of the mission's grounds, with plants and trees growing through the cracks in the walls. The once-pristine whitewash has faded, and the colors have dulled with time. This photograph, published by the Detroit Publishing Company under the direction of Edwin H. Husher, is a testament to the passage of time and the rich history of California. The photochrom process, a popular method of colorizing photographs during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, adds an extra layer of depth and beauty to the image. The Mission San Juan Capistrano remains an important part of American history and a popular tourist destination today. Visitors can still marvel at the mission's stunning architecture and reflect on the mission's storied past. This photograph, captured by William H. Jackson over a century ago, offers a unique glimpse into the past and the enduring beauty of this historic site.
