Eadweard Muybridge's Panorama of San Francisco from California St. Hill, 1878

360-degree panorama of San Francisco in 13 panels photographed from the roof of the Mark Hopkins residence on Nob Hill by Eadweard Muybridge in 1878. The views in this panorama are from the same perspective as those in a smaller-sized 11-panel panorama issued in 1877, but the appearance of some of the buildings confirms that they were photographed the following year. Muybridge's panorama was purchased for the New-York Historical Society by Daniel Parish in 1897.
