Description

Photograph of Culiacán, the capital of Sinaloa State, Mexico, [s.d.]. A thin road divides the city in half at center with a field on either side of it in the foreground. The field is spotted with small sheds further back until the town occupies the land in the background. What appears to be the Nuestra Señora del Rosario Cathedral can be seen to the immediate right of the road. The remainder of the town's buildings stand shorter than the various trees which are dispersed among them. A faint mountain range can be seen in the distance.
