[no photo] Shasta Butte

Exhibited: Mechanics' Institute Nineteenth Industrial Exhibition, 1884, page 52.
Citations: Alameda Encinal, 10 September 1884; William K. Dick notes.
Identification: The Alameda Encinal article is an announcement of an auction to be held 18 Sept by Easton and Eldridge, Auctioneers; it states that the paintings to be sold include all those from the exhibition, and it names this painting, so this painting may have appeared in that auction. The newspaper article pluralizes "Buttes". This painting may be the same as Shasta Butte from Upper Sacramento River.
