Description

This is a wall from the Catholic church here in the district of Heidelberg where I live. (BTW, I am not Catholic). I think, the image is suitable to the Holy Friday. The tomb slabs on the wall come from very old tombs of aristocratic people which lived here. They are ~600 years old. The Church is first mentioned in records in the year 745, but she was reconstructed and renovated in several times.

Thanks for having a look.

...and, as always, best details in Full-Size.

There is definitely nothing in my 50-year old city that equals this wonderful display of colors, textures, construction, masonry and carvings.

Superb imagery again! The uneven pattern of red bricks in the wall, the window, those wonderful old tombstones! Really beautiful and a beautiful composition!
