Court of the Four Seasons, Panama-Pacific Fair, San Francisco 1915

Gertrude Partington Albright's 1915 etching "Court of the Four Seasons, Panama-Pacific Fair, San Francisco" depicts the grand architecture of the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco, which was built for the Panama-Pacific International Exposition. Albright's detailed lines, executed in the etching style, capture the intricate details of the building's structure and the surrounding gardens. The reflection of the building in the water creates a sense of depth and symmetry. This piece, which was created for the exposition, offers a visual testament to a significant event in San Francisco's history.
