Description:
Color lithograph. 24.5x36.5 cm (9¾x14½") on sheet 44.7x54.6 cm (17½x21½").
A very hilly San Francisco in the early days of the Gold Rush, ships on the bay. This is a reduced version of Le Breton's 1850 lithograph, "San-Francisco/Vue Prise d'un Point Elevé du Côté Sud" (Reps 254). There is no publication information on the print, merely the title in lower margin and the artist's name, "Le Breton, sc." at lower right. That it is a color lithograph, not hand-colored, makes it somewhat anomalous.
Condition
Some discoloration or staining, mat burn, margins with residue from earlier matting; very good, worthy of restoration.
