Notes: Title, date, and keywords based on information provided by the photographer.; The word "quinta" in Spanish translates to a country house, villa or estate. When the owners, Jason and Marcia Matthews, began building the home in the 1930s, the area was surrounded by grapefruit orchards. The word "mazatlan" has an ancient Indian translation in Mexico meaning "Land of the Deer." The owners frequented the city of Mazatlan in Mexico and were clearly inspired by the Spanish architecture of the area. The home and grounds are now owned by the City of McAllen.; Forms part of: Lyda Hill Texas Collection of Photographs in Carol M. Highsmith's America Project in the Carol M.
