Original artwork description:

The Hacienda de los Martinez is one of the few northern New Mexico style, late Spanish Colonial period, "Great Houses" remaining. Built in 1804 , this fortress-like building with massive adobe walls became an important trade center and was the final terminus for the Camino Real which connected northern New Mexico to Mexico City. _x000D_ Today the Hacienda's twenty-one rooms surrounding two courtyards provide the visitor with a rare glimpse of the rugged frontier life and times of the early 1800s._x000D_ _x000D_ Signed on front, 14" x 10" image size with 16" x 20" mat, ready to frame.
