The Mission in Carmel was founded in 1771 by Father Serra. It was teh headquarters of the California mission system of 21 missions. It was first remodeled in the 1880s and then remodeled again in the 1930s, a 30 year project. Father Serra is buried under the main alter.
These are lovely little compositions,Cathy. I always thought it would be fun to take an extended road trip and sketch/paint all the missions.You have a great start!
