Description
A photograph mounted on a card, with a printed caption along the lower left. The tall, square church tower rises against a cloudy sky, with several tiers of arched openings, slender columns at the corners and a metal cross on top. Seen through a dark arch in the foreground, the tower stands beside a rounded roof with a small round window at right, and a circular carved rosette sits near its base.
