Facade of the church of John the Baptist, Addis Ababa

This drawing has been sold



Pen and wash, approx 7" x 5"

This is the same church as in the previous sketch but shown from the front. You can see the lady has a shawl wrapped round her head and shoulders making her look quite biblical. Many of the older ladies in Ethiopia still dress like this especially on Sundays. White trimmed with blue are favourite colours.
