The proportions of the photograph suggest that the actual size is 30 x 20 inches. 2. The 20 July 1882 edition of the San Francisco Evening Bulletin, reported that a painting titled Sunset on Lake Tahoe sold in San Francisco for $15 but there is not enough information in that report to either include or exclude the possibility that it is this painting. |
