Brazil Trip Sketches

My brother-in -law got married down in the Brazilian State of Rio Grade do Sul. We went down and spend 10 days with my wife's family. These are some selections from my sketchbook of the city of Pelotas, which is abundant in 19th century architecture, interesting sculptures and ornate fountains. I hope you can read my small and antiquated handwriting.

these are great, i love the tree, such exquisite line work. isn't it wonderful to go somewhere where everything is old and beautiful and decaying, there is nothing better.
