Description
Photograph of an old church at the Acoma Pueblo, New Mexico, ca.1900. The old church can be seen constructed from adobe brick, while two bell towers flank the main entry over which a small cross stands on the roof. A lower part of the church extends to the right of the main structure. The rafter tails are exposed. Stucco covers only the lower half of the structure, while the upper half consists of exposed brick. Five people stand or sit near the church entry. Some shrubs grow sparsely around the church.
