After our stay at the Baltic sea, we visited Rome, but only for a few days. This is the side view of St.Peter's Basilica. The basilica is a bit crooked, I know, but nevertheless, this sketch reminds me of a beautiful day there.
Nach unserem Aufenthalt an der Ostsee waren wir noch ein paar Tage in Rom. Dies ist die Seitenansicht des St.Petersdoms. Die Kuppel habe ich etwas schief gezeichnet, aber trotzdem erinnert mich die Skizze an einen schönen Tag dort.

I recognized it immediately! Oh I love Rome, as you can see by my blog photo of me sketching the church domes last October at sunset. I will be kayaking this morning...I will think of you while on the water!
Very interesting method of sketching the scene in Rome - assume its on brown kraft paper with chalks. Like the crookedness - did you have a flagon of wine alongside your sketchbook???
Ha, ha, no, Joan, I didn't have wine at my table; I didn't have even a table...and the spatter is Burnt Sienna spatter ;-)) And you assumed right: it i s on kraft paper with chalks!!!
I love this sketch, it looks so much like a sketch in a travel journal. and so many good memories go with it (for you, I have never been to Rome) Thank you for your kind words on the death of my sister in law. They were much appreciated.
Croked or not I think it's a wonderful sketch and am green with envy that you visited this beautiful place.
Thanks for sharing it with us.
I love this and the above sketch too - nice work, Claudia. It looks wonderful on the kraft paper.
