Flowers on the Altar

Castillo San Cristóbal, Old San Juan, San Juan, Puerto Rico; September 27, 2023

A small religious alcove in a wall features a statue of a robed figure holding a globe. Below the statue, a white pedestal holds a vase with red flowers. The alcove is set against a cream-colored wall with subtle cracks. To the left, a bright yellow wall contrasts sharply. A dark wooden railing with turned balusters runs along the bottom foreground, adding depth to the scene.
