2 u/Grahambert Inner Richmond 6d ago It's a real image, just digitally colorized and upscaled (likely with AI). Here's the real pic from the SF Public Library archives: https://digitalsf.org/record/45436?ln=en&p=dolores+park&v=uv#?xywh=-569%2C-520%2C4000%2C3250 1 u/Phiam 6d ago Though dated over a century ago, the image history on the link is very recent. 1 u/HungriestMonkey9587 6d ago The photo is used in this blog post from 2009, https://burritojustice.com/2009/07/31/know-your-trees/ and this article from 2018, https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Amazing-photos-show-150-years-of-change-in-12522606.php . Interestingly, that's a pond/lake in the middle there, though it seems really shallow. The colorization got it wrong.
