The beautiful watercolor of Nigüelas is due to the same artist who paints those of Dúrcal, Padul, Restábal and Saleres. The beautiful village of Nigüelas fits into the Sierra Nevada skirt with steep streets. The author informs us in great detail of all the important crops and roads, and in the center of the town he draws what appears to be a cistern. Intendencia Provincial.
