1676 / Piazza della Cisterna / San Gimignano

Piazza della Cisterna, also known for hosting the “gelato world champion” ice cream store! I tasted it after the sketch! One more of Khan sketches, on his 1928-29 trip.

1725 / Amalfi from the boat / Italy

One month ago, Drawing from the boat, in two moments: first when it was aproaching and Amalfi and then leaving to Positano.

1724 / San Salvatore / Spoleto

I did this sketch last September at the astonishing San Salvatore, a romanesque-style, former basilica church located in Spoleto, Umbria. The church-keeper told me he would close the church in 5 minutes when I was thinking on making the sketch, so I had to do a really fast one!

1699 / Houses at Capri

Back to black and white drawings . Capri, while waiting for the boat.  People constantly interrupted me to ask for informations about the ferry service ! The light was amazing when I started drawing! 1 hour sketch, uni-ball on Caballo paper.

1690 / Rio Della Misericordia // Venice

Rio Della Misericordia, a quiet canal, next to Campo de Ghetto Novo. 

1688 / San Giorgio Maggiori // Venice

San Giorgio Maggiori, another of Palladio’s masterwork.

1687 / San Marco / Venice

North facade of the Basilica, Piazza San Marco. Another point of view done by Louis Khan when he was in Venice.

1647 / Amalfi from the Ferry / Italy

Another view of beautiful Amalfi, this time from the boat.

1646 / Chiesa Nuova / Positano

Loved this little alleyway on the back of Chiesa Nuova: full of wires, dirty colors and contrasting forms and shadows.

1645 / Marina Grande / Sorrento

Marina Grande or Sorrento’s beach: loud music, totally packed, a bit smelly, but a funny, colorful and eclectic atmosphere.
