400 years of history ~

These magnificent and massive carved wooden doors are dated to 1665. They are from a chapel in Michoacan, Mexico and were carved by Tarascan wood carvers. They are now installed on one of the art galleries at the Amerind Foundation in Texas Canyon.

    I didn't know about this place. I would like to visit one day. The location reminded me of Council Rocks which I visited once. I will try to send you a photo of the pictographs. It is a beautiful place to explore.

    Kathy, This is a FASCINATING place! The core building was, I think, a grand old ranch house and it is interesting all by itself. The collections are tremendous. :)
