from $22.00

Magenta bougainvillea erupts from a rooftop planter and cascades down the corner of a Lima colonial building, its flowers against the weathered carved wood of a traditional Limeño balcony — the kind of enclosed wooden gallery that is one of the city's most distinctive architectural features. Ivy climbs alongside it, and the pale Lima sky bleaches the background to white, making the magenta and the wood the only subjects that matter.

The traditional wooden balcony (balcón limeño) is a defining feature of Lima's UNESCO-listed historic center — an enclosed wooden gallery that evolved from Moorish antecedents through the Spanish colonial period. This image captures it at its most considered: wrapped in bougainvillea, still in use, still standing.

Printed with pigment-based inks for lasting quality and rich tonal depth. Available on archival fine art paper, canvas, or metal.
