DescriptionThe ruins of an old house are set against a nighttime backdrop. Only the front wall and red door of a crumbling adobe are featured in the central background. The door is wide open. A large, lone tree hovers over the ruins at the left. The archway and brick wall of another dwelling are in the left foreground. The full moon shines bright in the right background and casts shadows in the central part of the image.On View
