Largo Mouzinho de Albuquerque, Viseu

Watercolor 23x31cm, W&N paper, rough

In my teenage years I walked through here every day heading to my high school classes, always wishing I was back in my tiny hometown.
……
Nos anos setenta, eu descia a Rua de São Lázaro até passar por aqui todos os dias a caminho da escola, e sempre a sonhar estar de volta na minha pequenina aldeia.
