Exterior view of the south side of Mission San Gabriel, 1900

Photograph of exterior view of the south side of Mission San Gabriel, 1900, showing the bell tower and a line of ten thick capped buttresses providing structure for the wall. The belfry stands about two-stories tall and has six visible arched openings, in one of which a bell is visible. Two crosses are perched on top of the mission, one on the belfry and the other at the peak of the front of the church roof (right). In front of the mission is a row of palm trees, shrubs and pepper trees(?). Two hitching posts stand next to the dirt roadway. Two sets of streetcar rails cross obliquely in roadway. A utility pole and lines have been blacked out of the image. A sign on the pole reads "Beware"....

1900年拍摄的圣加布里埃尔传教站（Mission San Gabriel）南侧外观照片，画面中可见钟楼与十座带厚实顶盖的扶壁，为墙体提供结构支撑。该钟楼高约两层，设有六处可见的拱形开口，其中一处开口内可见一口钟。传教站顶部坐落有两个十字架：一个设于钟楼之上，另一个位于教堂屋顶正面（右侧）的屋脊顶端。传教站前排列着一排棕榈树、灌木及疑似胡椒树。土路旁立有两根系马柱。两组有轨电车轨道斜向横穿该土路。画面中的电线杆及线路已被涂黑处理。电线杆上的标牌印有"小心"（Beware）字样。
