Street in Mompos, Colombia

Horizontal view of a receding street flanked by low houses with straw or grass roofs, in the foreground, by stately stone buildings, one of which has a tower with a flat top in the distance. The tops of the steeple and of the roof of the church rise in the left middle distance over trees.
