Lisbon from a high church tower

Mário Linhares sketch in a Laloran book

In Lisbon we have a terrific downtown and a lot of points to look at and sketch.

This is one of the not allowed tourist places: the top of the Saint Roque church tower. To go there we need to enter the museum and ask a lot of permissions. In the way, I sketch this 15th century frame to put the Lisbon view inside.

These wooden carvings were used in religious processions covered by saints clothes. 

They are amazing!
