the other side of the aqueduct

On this side we can see the aqueduct’s change in direction and how deep it goes into the landscape (cityscape, in our days).

down at the aqueduct

One level down. Further down: a precipice. Quite a dramatic valley to send the aqueduct through. The result is quite a dramatic construction.

back to the aqueduct

Sunny Lisbon again but post cyclone Paulette is looming in the Azores

estrela again II

Rua dos Navegantes

estrela again

Second day of rain in Lisbon. Didn’t went out for a drawing.

So, here goes one from early August unpublished then. It’s a view of the Basilica from Rua de Buenos Aires.

aqueduct break

A break from my project on the aqueduct. This section of Amoreiras has a Brazilian flair because of the stark contrast between the new, the old and the upcoming. The top floor of the tall building in the right “Edifício Satélite”, stands higher than any other in Lisbon.

Rua Nova do Loureiro, 8.40 AM. I had to do this one before the view is closed forever. Cloudy day again. I guess I’ll have to make a few chiaroscuros in one day.

just this morning XVI

Calçada do Combro, 8.15 AM. I had to interrupt due to cold weather. A northwest wind called Nortada was just blowing me to single digits Celcius temperature. I’ll be back tomorrow.
