Inscriptions verso (applied label with printed black ink): The road under construction. For new generations there is little to offer: either to emigrate / to the slums of the cities or fall into the pit of alcoholism or adolescent motherhood. The / state government has begun road constructions. The inhabitants have an ambivalent / feeling about this matter: they are afraid to lose their means of earning money as guides / or boarding tourists and believe they will no longer be needed. On the other hand they / believe that roads could be better for their access to the valley. March 1994.- / Cristina Fraire .- Print 19
