Spoleto!

Even though I'd been to Spoleto three times before, I had never entered the city by walking across this ancient Roman aqueduct...what a spectacular sight with the deep ravine below and the Umbrian hills stretching far into the distance.  I did two sketches here.  First, the aqueduct itself.  Then, looking up the valley to a church nestled in the hills.  Can't wait to do a painting of both of these scenes.  Ken took a photo of my aqueduct sketch. :-)   Those Romans!  How did they build that?
