Diane Baldwin
San Francisco Cathedral Landscape Watercolor -- Saint Ignatius Church

c.1970's

About the Item

A bold and colorful cityscape watercolor of an urban Basilica, the great Saint Ignatius Church of San Francisco, with its impressive architecture captured in great detail by Diane Baldwin (American, 20th century). Signed "Baldwin" lower right. Unframed. Image, 22"H x 30"L. Saint Ignatius Church is a church on the campus of the University of San Francisco in San Francisco, California. The church serves a parish of the Catholic Archdiocese of San Francisco and is the university's chapel. The present church's architecture, which was dedicated in 1914, is a mix of Italian Renaissance and Baroque elements, and its floorplan follows that of ancient Roman basilicas. Though Saint Ignatius Church survived the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake unscathed, it was recently renovated and seismically reinforced. One of the city's largest churches, its location on a hilltop as well as its twin spires and dome makes it a prominent San Francisco landmark. Its backdrop was always the sky of San Francisco only until Salesforce Tower was erected to its east in 2018.
