Restored print of the presidio and the Golden Gate strait

A digitally restored version of the Adam lithograph after Louis Choris, published in the Voyage pittoresque autour du monde. The underlying artwork appears to date from around 1817, when Choris travelled the Pacific as artist to a Russian expedition, and the restoration is a featured picture on Wikipedia.
