DescriptionA birds-eye view of Albuquerque, New Mexico taken from a hilltop, facing east. A carpentry shop, wool and hides shop are in the foreground, with residential homes, storefronts, dirt lots and trees, church spires, and lumber yards sprawling into the distance where the Sandia Mountains emerge at the horizon. Emulsion deterioration is occurring on the glass plate causing distortion and emulsion loss in image.
