San Antonio's Spanish Missions : A Portrait Hardback

Hardback

  • Information

Description

This elegant coffee-table volume displays more than 100 color photographs by architectural photographer Mike Osborne, providing a distinctive contemporary portrait of the five mission complexes, now partly restored, partly still in ruins.

One, better known as the Alamo, is a memorial to its defenders in 1836.

The four others comprise San Antonio Missions National Historical Park.

Each section begins with a dramatic 19th-century image.

Osborne’s color photographs range from interior views of the Alamo to a mariachi mass at San José to a composite of rifle portholes in Espada’s bastion, with other dramatic views of the missions and related landmarks in between.
