content: Architecture and landscape sketch showing a view of granaries in Mexico, likely north of Mexico City. Situated in the middle distance at center, a group of seven cone-shaped granaries made of stone or brick are visible. Resembling Native American tipis, they are organized into a triangle with the foremost structure at center. In the background, the outlines of two rolling hills backdrop the scene.
