content: Architecture and landscape sketch showing a view of two houses in Barranquilla, Colombia. At center, a woman in draped clothing stands in the doorway of a house with white, stucco walls and a straw roof. A wooden fence adjoins the house at left and extends out of view, while another similar house is visible in the background at right. The foreground is comprised of a rocky, dirty road largely in shadow. Besides a few clouds, the hazy sky above is blue and clear.
