DescriptionThis image depicts two dancers in front of the San Felipe de Neri Church in Old Town in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The church makes up the majority of the background. One of the church's large steeples can be seen on the roof. The two dancers can be seen in the small lawn area in the foreground. On the lawn is grass, several small bushes, and a single large tree on the left side of the frame. The dancers consist of a man wearing a dark colored suit and a dark colored bow tie and a woman wearing a large floral-patterned dress. Her hair is done up in large loops on either side of her head. Both people have one leg raised on a small stump. The woman, on the left, is looking off the right side of the frame while the man, on the right, is looking at her. He also has a large dark colored sombrero in his hands.
