    My guess is that it is set in the Dolomites, a mountain range in northern Italy, just south of the Alps. The mountains are very steep with sharp, serrated peaks, and there are often crucifixes in passes as a symbol of protection. This is a general custom along important mountain routes in Roman Catholic regions of Europe.

    I'd rather see a proper pic of the siggy. but the Dolomites are certainly a good guess



    for a flatlander:hilarious:

    We're in the southeast of the country, higher up than Holland, so at least a thousand years to go before we get to be a seaside resort.;) I'll send you a postcard from our personal sunny beach when we do.:hilarious:

    We call that a train.:)
    I like that song, sent a copy to my brother in Scotland at the time. I just noticed something that looks like a prototype of one of Theo Jansen's 'Strandbeests' in the video. They are now being studied by Nasa btw.
    A strandbeest in action, with very romantic music:

    More beests, I am a fan. When we have our own private beach due to global warming, I'll have to order one:

    but back to the painting. from the Jesus and especially the typical roof it might as well be on a pilgrimage road somewhere in Austria.

    I think it's a roadside shrine in the mountains and I'll go with whatever others suggested for locale.

    To me the roadside looks to only go towards one home with a shed....so I'll call it a Driveway.....with a huge life size 'No Trespassing' Sign.......!!:eek::eek::stop::stop::stop:
