DescriptionA landscape view of Saint Vincent Academy, or Sisters School, and surrounding grounds. The building has two stories, made of brick, has three visible chimney stacks and has arched windows. The center column of the school's faces jet outward and there is a peaked roof above those sections. Atop each peak (two visible from the right-angled view) is a cross. There is crown molding along the roof and building’s edge. There is a wooden fence outside the school, with two horses with carriages outside it. One carriage has a rider, wearing a dark hat and coat. The school's grounds are largely bare, with a few leafless tress and flat desert grasslands. Saint Vincent Academy was a girl’s school, located on New York Avenue, now 603 West Lomas Boulevard.
