This view of the choir at the Iglesia de San Diego in Churubusco, on the southern edge of Mexico City, shows a colonial-era church in a district better known for its 1847 battle during the U.S.-Mexico War. The caption card gives no date, and the photographer is recorded only as "Kahlo," so the attribution is unconfirmed. Still, the picture offers a glimpse of the church's interior fittings, which were typical of Mexican religious architecture of the period.
