This hand-colored stereograph card features two nearly identical, side-by-side rectangular photographs with arched tops, mounted on a light-brown, pebble-textured cardboard backing. The image shows the exterior of a large, Gothic-style stone cathedral that has suffered extensive damage. The building's walls are cracked, and its two main spires are in different states of ruin: the left spire is partially collapsed, while the right spire remains standing but is topped with a rounded, reddish-brown dome-like structure that appears displaced. In the foreground, a low wooden fence runs along the edge of a dirt street, and a few small, green trees are visible near the base of the structure. The background features a clear, pale sky. Small, light-colored text printed at the bottom right of the photographs reads: "No. 1025. Earthquake wrecked Spires and Walls of St. Dominic's Cathedral, San Francisco, April 18, 1906.". Below the mounted stereograph, a gray and black color calibration scale is visible within the frame.
