Description
Photograph of two views of a castle and a chapel in Cartagena, Colombia, [s.d.]. In the top view a small island of trees floats in the glass-like water on the right while a road winds around the water's edge on the left. A thick, brick wall stands along the left side of the road with tiny trees dispersed among the buildings behind it. Among the many structures stands an elegant chapel. Photoprint reads "Walls of Santa Catalina and El Cabrero Bay: this site in addition to its picturesqueness is historically interesting for in the chapel repose the remains of former president, Dr. Rafael Nunez". The bottom view shows a great castle at the edge of a cliff on the right. The castle appears to be brick and stands prominently at the top of the rock hill. A road winds around the hill and leads to the trees at the lower elevation on the left. Photoprint reads "Castle of San Felipe de Barajas". Photo sleeve reads "copied from prints of Edgar Lloyd Hampton".
