Description
Photograph of four views of Mexican architecture and street scenes, with churches, [s.d.]. The frame is divided into four equal, rectangular parts, each containing a separate image. The top left image shows the gilded arched windows of what appears to be a gothic church, each window separated from the next by a ridge running up the exterior wall. The silhouette of a man in a sombrero can be seen in the right foreground. The top right image shows a long, two-story building with what appears to be either brick or gingerbread trim on its lower level. Its upper level features a balcony behind which arched windows can be seen. The corner of a second building is visible in the right of the frame. The bottom left image shows the front of what appears to be the adobe wall of a mission, two stories tall and adorned with porthole windows. A dome can be seen over the wall in the background, while a wrought-iron fence can be seen extending from the wall to the left. People walk along the sidewalk and unpaved road in the foreground. The final image, in the lower righthand corner, shows what appears to be a courtyard, with a tiered bell tower in the background, connected to the "L"-formation of two-story mission walls. The silhouettes of talking men can be seen beneath the tree in the frame's left foreground.
