The Golden Gate
The Golden Gate. The name given to this stretch of water before the bridge was built or gold was discovered. The first mention of this was in Jon Freemont's memoirs where he wrote in 1846 "To this Gate I gave the name of "Chrysopylae", or "Golden Gate";
In 1937 the Golden Gate Bridge was built to span this gap. See the full image here: https://fineartamerica.com/featured/the-golden-gate-bill-gallagher.html?newartwork=true #TheGoldenGate #BillGallagherPhotography #BuyIntoArt #AYearForArt #GoldenGateBridge #SanFrancisco #GGB #MarinHeadlands
