Brunelleschi's cupola

One of my favorite places in Florence is the Biblioteca Delle Oblate. In this beautiful library there is a small caffe, the view of the cathedral from this caffe has to be one of the best in Florence. I go there often and I've painted and drawn there before (two years ago) so I decided to try again. I sat and had a macchiato and slowly I started my drawing. I usually move fast when I'm sketching, but I made sure I took my time and made an effort to be more precise. I am happy with the outcome although I would like to try again. So here is my drawing of the beautiful cupola of the Florentine cathedral designed by Renaissance architect Filippo Brunelleschi.
