label: Description
content: Vertical sheet depicting a small early Baroque church seen from the west. The west facade has a semicircular portico with a small clock tower above. Above the tower is a niche with a statue of a woman holding a child on her left hip. Given the statue's location and the dedication of the church to the Virgin Mary, it is likely a staute of Mary holding Christ on her hip. The tower is completed by small cupola and finial in the shape of a rooster. Visible beyond the west entrance are the two buttressed arms of the nave, and small round arched windows of the aisles.
