- Description:
- Photograph of the Burrage mansion, Redlands, San Bernardino County, ca.1900. Two adjoined(?) Mission Revival style buildings are visible beyond the trees in the foreground. The buildings feature multicurved gables, Spanish tiled roofs, and two dome towers. Lush forests of trees surround the mansion. A man (gardener?) is working near a tree in the foreground. At right, in the foreground, is a tree bearing fruits (orange?). Mountains are visible in the distance. "Copper king Albert Burrage built the mansion in 1900. The 37,000-square-foot home is a full-scale copy of a Spanish mission. It rests on 17 acres. There are beautiful trees and flowers from around the world. The Burrage Mansion is a fine example of Mission Revival, a style that may be better represented in Redlands than any other city in Southern California. " -- unknown author.
