Scope and content
An image of the exterior of Mission Santa Inés (also spelled Santa Ynez) located in Solvang, California. The photograph, titled ‘Front of Church and Belfry’ in the handwritten notes at the bottom, captures the mission as it appeared in 1904. The image shows the main front of the church on the left and the distinct campanario (bell tower) to the right. The bell tower shown in this 1904 photo was later replaced in 1911 after collapsing in a storm.
