label: Description
content: Landscape sketch showing a view of distant buildings nestled in the mountainous terrain of Mexico. In the middle distance, a group of cattle are shown grazing on a wide plain at center. In the background, a prominent, rounded hill visibly rises at center. Buildings, apparently with red tiles, are huddled together at the base of the hill's left slope, while on its right slope, a hacienda building is loosely rendered. The outline of a rugged mountain range forms a serrated horizon in the background.
