The architectural history of Mission San Carlos Borromeo, California / By Frances Rand Smith
A 1921 architectural history of Mission San Carlos Borromeo in Carmel, California, published in Berkeley by the California Historical Survey Commission and written by Frances Rand Smith for scholars and preservationists. The photographs record the mission's surviving adobe walls, foundations and roofless interior, showing how much of the structure had decayed by then; a designer could draw on their weathered textures and crumbling masonry forms.
