content: Architectural study of a church in Naré (now Puerto Naré), Colombia. At center, the church is characterized by its tall gable that nearly resembles an A-frame structure, and its skeletal belltower at the right of its facade. Distant clouds backdrop the building. A sketch of a priest with his back turned wearing a dark robe and wide-brimmed hat is visible at right.
