Church of San Giorgio Maggiore (Venice)

It looked like to start raining at any moment, so I sketched more hurriedly than usual. It started raining as I feared, so I finished the work in a hurry.

Usually it takes an hour for me to make a sketch, but this one was made in 40 minutes.

We went to the top of this bell tower next day. We can see all of Venice from there. It was just noon, and the bell started ringing all of a sudden. The very big sound made me almost deaf.
