The image is a digitally colored woodcut reproduction of a 19th-century photograph, adding an artistic touch to this vintage piece. General Andres Pico's significance lies in his role as a prominent figure in American and Californian history. As the final Mexican governor before California became part of the United States, he played a crucial role during this transitional period.
