EDITORS COMMENTS
"This evocative photograph captures the aftermath of the devastating San Francisco earthquake that struck on April 18, 1906. Measuring 7.9 on the Richter scale, the earthquake brought about a violent shaking that lasted for 45 seconds and could be felt from Southern Oregon to Southern Los Angeles. The earthquake resulted in the tragic loss of over 3,000 lives and extensive destruction to property, amounting to a staggering $400 million in today's currency. In the aftermath of the earthquake, fires broke out along the harbor shore and spread rapidly throughout the city. The conflagration consumed vast areas, leaving a trail of decimation in its wake. This historical image is a poignant reminder of the destructive power of nature and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity."
