Description
English: Drawing by William Rich Hutton depicting a section of Los Angeles, ca.1847

Photograph of a drawing by William Rich Hutton depicting a section of Los Angeles, ca.1847. A collection of squat adobe buildings are depicted arranged around a central clearing to the right. Along the bottom edge of this, the words "Church" and "Part of Los Angeles" can be seen clearly, while fading or erased writing is faintly visible beneath it. Hills are depicted in the background, along with a network of tree rows.

Generally considered to be the oldest extant drawing of the city.[1]
