The work of Mario Urteaga addresses, almost exclusively, aspects of life in Cajamarca. His painting possesses an exceptional intensity, expressing, among other themes, the painter’s deep affection for his place of birth. In this composition, the artist depict sunset in a rural village in Cajamarca, whose broad spectrum of social and ethnic differences he describes through the representation of a handful of characters. In this image of sunset in a rural village in Cajamarca, a couple moves away from the viewer, taking with them a load carried on the back of a donkey, as if they were hurrying to complete their task, so as not to lose the final moments of daylight. We know that they are Indigenous because they are dressed in typical clothing: he wears a poncho and she wears a shawl fastened over her shoulders. Meanwhile, at the door of a small house, a conversation takes place between a standing woman and a man in farmer’s clothing, who is accompanied by his dog. Finally, another woman —apparently a servant girl— is seen approaching the house, carrying a pitcher.
