Mount Rainier and Lake Washington, ca 1900 (MOHAI 7225)

When the weather is clear, Mount Rainier, at over 14,000 feet tall, dominates the scenery in the central Puget Sound region. This photograph, taken by Seattle photographer George Braas, shows Mount Rainier over Lake Washington. The photograph was probably taken around 1900 from Seattle's Mount Baker district, looking across the lake towards Mercer Island (l.) and Bailey Peninsula (r.) now Seward Park.
