Cathedral in Chartres

This free impression of Chartres was made quite a long time ago, when I visited this small but beautiful city. When you drive up to Chartres there is one spot where you can see the Cathedral
towering over the fields of yellow grain and giving you the impression the pilgrimage must have given in medieval times, drawing you to the centre of this town.
As the church was quite overwhelming in its grandeur I chose only a very small palette of three colours and painted away. A Very lovely spot to be.
