loose_leaf. Condition: Good. Vintage color print from the Grand Hotel, San Francisco, engraved by G.W. Shourds, circa 1865-1870. In good condition with a 1/4" nick to the lower left edge and light overall scuffing and soiling. Located on the corner of Market Street and New Montgomery, the highly eclectic Grand Hotel in San Franc…isco, was designed by John Gaynor (circa 1826 - 1888), an Irish American architect, who was also the architect of the neighboring Palace Hotel. Occupying much of a city block, the hotel was in operation from c. 1865 until at least 1885. Its styling reflected elements derived from Italinate, Second Empire, and Neo-Classical architecture, among others. The building had three full stories, plus rooms on its mansarded attic level. Commercial shops lined much of the the hotel's first floor, sharing space with a main lobby. The building was destroyed in the 1906 earthquake. The engraver, G. W. Shourds, was a prominent engraver and printer who worked with many hotels and businesses in San Francisco. This print depicts the Grand Hotel's main entrance, with its ornate facade and decorative details. It is a beautiful example of Shourds' work and a fascinating glimpse into the history of one of San Francisco's early iconic landmarks.
