A tribute to the treasure trove of ecclesiastical art and architecture in the Diocese of Toledo.
Just curious Jeffery ... what makes this brick work so distinctive to you?
The color. Most people don't realize there's a wide variety of subtle shading in bricks, not limited to red and buff. The builders here DID know that and used it to achieve almost a shimmering effect.
Most beautiful brick I've ever seen. The cloudy day didn't come close to doing it justice.
The terra cotta trim matches that of the other buildings in the complex.
I love the porch.
