Leaves From My Sketchbooks. 34. Roadside Chapel, Loppia, Barga, Tuscany


My friend, David, and I both did paintings of this chapel which sticks out into the road as testament to Italy's constant problem of compromising modern transport with age-old buildings.

'You haven't finished already.' protested David as I hopped off the wall. I had deliberately sat on some sharp stones knowing that the faster I finished the better the sketch would be! My God those stones were brutal.
