A final group of sketches from Portugal before I get to grips with scanning all the Istanbul pictures…
The tomb of Luis Vaz de Camoes, Portugal’s greatest poet, in Jeronimos Monastery, Lisbon.

One of Lisbon’s very distinctive fire hydrants, standing on the equally ubiquitous chunky mosaic pavement.

The lovely Bed and Breakfast we stayed in in Sintra…
Water-brush with Lexington grey ink, gouache, A5
… and the view of Sintra Palace from our bedroom window. (Interesting to compare with Jean-Christophe Defline’s sketch of the Palace and trying to work out where he was standing/floating to get that view!)
