Spain - Seville - Plaza de Espana donkey owner

With his brush at the ready, a donkey ride owner awaits new business during the quiet Siesta afternoon period in Seville's Plaza de Espana. This semicircular enclosure was built by Aníbal González, the great architect of Sevillian regionalism, for the Ibero-American exposition held in 1929. Today the Plaza de España mainly consists of Government buildings. The Seville Town Hall, with sensitive adaptive redesign, is located within it. The Plaza's tiled 'Alcoves of the Provinces' are backdrops for visitors portrait photographs, taken in their own home province's alcove.
