Description
Photograph of the interior of the church at San Jose, New Mexico, during a Mexican wedding, ca.1898. People can be seen crowding the pews and floor of the crowded church. Four members of the wedding party stand in front of their chairs at the front of the church, their backs to the onlookers, facing a priest and the altar. About fifty pictures hang on the walls in a seemingly random pattern.
