SAN MIGUEL MISSION CHURCH - 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 pastel

SAN MIGUEL MISSION CHURCH
4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel*
SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR

During my last trip to Santa Fe, I returned to a favorite site. 
The San Miguel Mission Church is revered as the oldest
church in the United States and built by the Tlaxcalan
Indians in the early 1600's. 

The rich adobes walls are a wonderful contrast to Santa Fe's
blue skies.
