Behind this door lived an aging widow. She sat with me while I sketched the beautiful doors of Verrucole in Tuscany. She had walked up the hill with pails of chestnuts from the woods and fresh beans and I helped her carry them inside. I asked if I could take her photo but she gently declined, unfortunately. Below is a watercolour I did.

Lovely. Both the photo and the watercolor.

Both the water colour and photo are outstanding. But I love the header with you in the picture noting or sketching the details of the location and event. Hope your travels continue and provide more for us less worldly travelers. Terry
