Cock Fight, Santo Domingo
1923

A sepia-toned sketch depicting a cockfighting scene. In the foreground, two roosters face off while surrounded by a crowd of onlookers, some of whom are seated on benches, and others standing or leaning against a fence. The spectators, dressed in various styles of hats and clothing, appear engaged and animated, with some gesturing excitedly. The setting suggests an outdoor arena with a canopy overhead, and the atmosphere is one of intense focus on the central activity.
