Description
Photograph of four views of Mexican architecture, showing cathedral interiors, [s.d.]. The frame is divided into four equal, rectangular parts, each containing a separate image: The top left frame shows the carving along the side of an arched doorway, which includes relief carving and a small statue of a robed man with a crown reading from a book. The doorway can be partially seen to the right. The top right frame shows a carved pillar next to what appears to be a paneled set of double doors. A large, loose stone stands at the foot of the pillar. The bottom left panel shows detail on the carved panelling, a rose shape cut into the center of the relief, with rectangular panels extending concentrically from it. Finally, the lower right panel shows carved vaulting shafts extending towards the ceiling.
