EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph takes us back in time to the year 1777, capturing the essence of The Spanish Mission, Santa Clara de Asis in California. A true testament to the rich history and cultural significance of this region, this print showcases the architectural beauty of one of a series of religious outposts established by Spanish Catholics. Named after the order of Poor Clares, this mission served as a beacon for spreading Christian doctrine among Native Americans. The image portrays a scene from the wild west frontier; an outpost on the edge of civilization where settlers sought solace and spiritual guidance. The composition is filled with intriguing details that transport us to another era. An ox-drawn wagon stands prominently near a cross, symbolizing both faith and exploration. The adobe church stands tall against the backdrop of North American wilderness, its c18th architecture reflecting early American influences. As we gaze upon this engraving, we are reminded of America's pioneering spirit and its deep roots in religion and settlement. This piece serves as a window into our past - an homage to those who ventured into uncharted territories seeking new beginnings. Preserved within private collections today, this litho reminds us not only of our nation's heritage but also highlights how art can capture moments frozen in time. It invites us to reflect on our collective journey while appreciating the beauty found within historical landmarks such as The Spanish Mission at Santa Clara de Asis.
