EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning aerial print captures the beauty and history of Treasure Island in San Francisco Bay, California. Built in 1936-37 for the 1939 Golden Gate International Exposition, this artificial island has become a beloved neighborhood in the City and County of San Francisco.
The panoramic view showcases the iconic Golden Gate Bridge in the distance, with Mount Diablo looming majestically on the horizon. The birds-eye perspective allows us to appreciate the intricate layout of this man-made marvel, which has since been designated as a California Historical Landmark.
