Soft pastel chalk and gentle gradients shape the adobe façades and rounded bell towers of Santa Fe's Palace of the Governors. Low, warm sunlight rakes across the long portal, casting painted hide shadows in dusty rose, sand and soft turquoise. A serene Southwestern scene for lovers of historic architecture and desert light.
