Framed New Mexico Art

Well before the first Europeans arrived, the lands were inhabited by indigenous people, but the Spanish conquistadors established here the Imperial Spanish vice-royalty. Native Americans managed to preserve their traditions and culture, with many still living within the state borders. Framed New Mexico Art feature Apache, Navajo and Pueblo-an communities, with these being the largest Native American groups in the state. New Mexico incorporated all the historical elements that shaped its development in the state flag, which reflects the mix of influences.

Framed New Mexico Art also features the solitary churches at the outskirts of towns surrounded by hundreds of miles of desert. Communities like Santa Fe or Santa Rosa the Lima feature in panoramic images that include popular tourist attractions, such as the San Miguel Mission or the Santo Tomas church. The white sands of the New Mexico desert exercise a special fascination on those who don’t hesitate to leave the comfort of modern living and venture outside the city outskirts. The landscape changes radically in the higher areas of the mountainous regions surrounding Albuquerque.
