'Golden Gate (From Telegraph Hill)', 1872. View of the strait that connects San Francisco Bay to the Pacific Ocean, California, USA. 'The view opens, and the splendid straits called the Golden Gate appear. Through them we can see the island-rock of Alcatraz, with its fortifications gleaming in the distance...Little craft and big craft, steamers from the ocean, tugs, and every variety of floating thing, are spread upon the gleaming waters, whose green waves dash into white foam upon the three islands ahead. Beyond the city, one can catch momentary glimpses of shipping...'. From "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In, A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of the Mountains, Rivers, Lakes...with Illustrations on Steel and Wood by Eminent American Artists" Vol. I, edited by William Cullen Bryant.
