Drawing of San Francisco's Golden Gate, showing several large ships, 1837

Photograph of a drawing of San Francisco's Golden Gate, showing several large ships, 1837. At right, there are two large ships, one with two masts and one with three, and a dinghy is in the water nearby. Another ship with at least two masts is in the foreground at left, and there is also a dinghy near it. Two sailboats can be seen across the water, and yet another large ship is roundng the point. The image also depicts Yerba Buena, as that was then name of the city until 1847. There are ducks on the water, swimming near a floating barrel.

1837年的一幅摄影作品，主体为一幅描绘旧金山金门（Golden Gate）的素描，画面中展现了多艘大型船舶。画面右侧有两艘大型船舶，一艘带有两根桅杆，另一艘带有三根桅杆，附近水面上有一艘小艇；画面左侧前景处另有一艘至少带有两根桅杆的船舶，其附近同样配有一艘小艇。水面对岸可见两艘帆船，另有一艘大型船舶正在绕过岬角。该作品同时描绘了耶尔瓦布埃纳（Yerba Buena）——这座城市在1847年之前的官方名称。水面上有野鸭正于一只漂浮的木桶附近游动。
