A scenic picture taken of the Mission Santa Clara de Asis located on the campus of Santa Clara University. This picture was taken as the sun was setting as you can see the changing sky color the silhouette of the Mission Church. This site in which the Mission is located is the fifth as floods, earthquakes, and fires forced the Santa Clara de Asis Mission to move five times. Each of the five mission sites are commemorated on the Santa Clara University campus of in the City of Santa Clara. The original mission was founded in 1777 near the current site of the San Jose airport. This first church was built in 1825 by the Spanish with no decoration. Ten years later figures of saints were painted on the church facade. Over the next 90 years the facade was remolded twice.
