Mision San Luis Rey de Francia

James Jones

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of the facade of a mission church featuring a central arched entrance framed by two columns, a circular window above the entrance, a niche with a triangular pediment and a cross at the top. The architecture shows elements of Spanish colonial style, including smooth stucco surfaces and pilasters. The roofline has a decorative scalloped edge. Below the drawing is the text "1798" and "mission san luis rey de francia."
