A linocut with hand coloring depicting a Senegalese cityscape, mostly in yellow. In the bottom center is a road leading to a building with a classical pediment and two white columns. Other buildings line the road and rise from a hill behind. Many of these buildings feature archways and domes in their design. In the foreground, the side of one building is red and across the road is a white sign with black lettering. In the background, one domed building on the left is green and another on the right is blue, with two green trees beside it. The title of the print [(illegible) Senegal] is written in pencil on the bottom left corner with [3rd Imp] written on the bottom center. The print is signed on the bottom right corner in pencil [James L. Wells '75].
