Altar and Fresco in the Sacristy

Altar and Fresco in the Sacristy

Pictured is the remaining portion of a fresco and the altar set in front of it at the sacristy of Mission Concepción church. Orange light suffuses the scene, causing the metallic icon on the crucifix to glow brightly. This fresco is over 250 years old.
