Rectory of the ROC

As I’ve mentioned in the last post, the Russian-Orthodox Church in Wiesbaden is very detailed, so I’ll have another go with a longer session sometime. But the rectory nearby seemed to be a good »target« for one hour on a fresh but sunny sunday afternoon. And a good pastime till the election results for the german Bundestag came up...

Russian-Orthodox Church, Wiesbaden

Built between 1847 and 1855, this church is one of Wiesbaden´s landmarks. For many months I resolved to sketch it. Finally I managed to go there on purpose, willing to draw it... After a few moments I realised, that I was totally lost in the mass of details of the building. So I decided to take a back seat and draw a quick sketch and just some of the details and to enjoy the athmosphere of this beautiful late summer saturday. I´ll be back.
