DescriptionA man and woman stand behind a barbed wire fence that surrounds a two-story brick house and garden in Albuquerque, New Mexico. There are large plants growing taller than the two people standing in the yard. The second-story of the home is visible above the trees. The house has two brick chimneys and a peaked dormer roof and window. The man and women wear large brimmed hats that shade their faces. Silver mirroring and emulsion deterioration is occurring on the glass plate creating color distortion and emulsion loss.
