$ 200

made 17th August




After a 40 minutes walk in a hot afternoon I found this castle .
built after the Lepanto naval battle by Colane Drasia. A captain from Ossero that distinguished himself in the battle and was reawarded by the Republic of Venice with land and property in the islands of Cres (Cherso) and Maly Losinj(Lussino).
It was very hot. I got sting by a bee. Never sow a soul for the all time it took me to paint .
