Santa Fe Canyon
1931

This is an oil painting depicting a rugged landscape with a wooden bridge foregrounding a deep canyon. Tall, green pine trees stand prominently against a backdrop of steep, red and brown rocky cliffs. A small stream flows beneath the bridge, and in the distance, a hint of a waterfall can be seen between the cliffs. The sky above is painted with dynamic strokes of blue and white, suggesting a windy atmosphere. The artist's signature "BARNOS" is visible in the bottom right corner.
