Description
Photograph of a woman dancing to guitar music as other people clap along, [s.d.]. The woman can be seen at center and is spinning so that her skirt is almost horizontal. She is holding a pair of castinets over her head with her right hand. A group of people is gathered around her, and all are wearing traditional Mexican clothing. A man with a guitar can be seen at left. A small thatch-roofed hut is visible in the background at right, and a large wooden cross is visible in front of it.
