Another sketch returning from Roermond. A nice view across the fields to the Dutch village St. Odiliënberg. The church is the Basilica of the Saints Plechemus, Wiro and Otger. I must admit I never heard of them, but they founded this church in around AD 765. There is not much left of the original Roman basilica, most was "restored" in the 19th century, destroyed in the 2nd World War and rebuilt in the 50's.

This looks like a very peaceful place. Nice sketch.
It was very peacefull, I heard a "leeuwerik" skylark when I stood in the fields. It was the first nice day since october, I think the skylark thought the same.
lovely scene- a favorite of mine.
Thanks Rob, I took advantage of one of the first days of spring, and nice weather.
