Earthenware pot collection in Medellin, Colombia

Size: 1024×714

Dozens of earthenware pots sit under a fabric roof. Most likely, this is a photo of a market stall.

Medellín is a fast-growing city in Colombia. Heavy investment in industry has made Medellín’s economy one of the strongest in the country. This photo shows that traditional crafts continue to be practiced even as the city becomes more and more modern.
