Wm Keith / 67 April
Notes Picture, watercolor of Adeline station in 1867. Painted by William Keith.
Scottish born William Keith's reputation as California's most prominent painter of grand Sierra Nevada landscapes began small with his illustrative work as a commercial wood engraver in San Francisco. Keith was living in Oakland in 1867 when he produced a number of watercolors depicting East Bay scenes that included this rural looking view of passengers waiting at a small station house on the 7th Street rail line leading to Oakland's waterfront on San Francisco Bay.
