DescriptionThis is a familiar New Mexican landscape of the Rio Grande at Embudo, pictured from an elevated perspective. The river runs diagonally in the foreground with a footbridge. A mountainous landscape fills the remainder of the print receding to a darker range in the background. The artist employs a wide range of tonal values emphasizing the mountainous banks of the river against a distant dark background.
