DescriptionBack of the Ranchos de Taos St. Francis chruch.eMuseum Notes
The San Francisco de Asís Mission Church in Ranchos de Taos has interested artists for decades because of its idiosyncratic style. The heavy buttressing of the church, especially at the rear, inspired artists such as Gustave Baumann, John Marin, Georgia O'Keeffe, and Paul Strand.
