LUCINDA TEMPLE ZUNIGA AT BASYE ADOBE, CA. 1890S
Photograph, Reproduction: A black and white reproduction photograph of Lucinda Temple Zuniga standing in front of the Basye Adobe, ca. 1890s. Mrs. Zuniga stands at center wearing a dark skirt, light blouse with dark neck scarf and has her left arm behind her on a hitching rail with her right arm bent at her waist. Behind her is most of the facade of the adobe. At extreme left is a corner of a shingled porch roof. From left to right are three parts of the adobe. The left has a door with white blind, and a dual framed window. The center has a porch, screened door and window, a birdcage hung from the porch, and a vine growing at the right edge of the porch. The right is the store and saloon of Manuel M. Zuniga, husband of Lucinda. There is a false front lettered to identify the building. There are two doors and three shuttered windows, one of which is opened. Rough rail hitching posts span the length of the building. A negative is 97.8.12. In mint condition. On the source photograph in ink at the lower right is, "Lucinda Suniga-stepmother." Manuel Zuniga's daughter, Leonora, was mother of the source, Carlos Hartnell.
