This tells about the Madonna & Child which was stolen by the Nazi's and then returned to the church in Bruges. It doesn't mention that it had been stolen but this is the one which was discussed in the lecture.
This shows the placement of the Michelangelo's sculpture and the sort of green lines over it is because it is protected from being stolen again! This was a beautiful church and we were allowed some time to stay and view it. Bob's back was still bothering a great deal so he was glad to have a place to sit down for awhile.
And this is a close-up of the statue. It was truly beautiful and a joy to see particularly after learning how it was nearly lost to the world.
Another canal view but with a house built across the canal! These were such peaceful places to walk along and we would have enjoyed lingering to look at our leisure. Love the reflections in the water.
A peaceful green area to enjoy on our walk--there were a number of places like this with lots of flowers and shade.
