Maria am Gestade

My father did this drawing when we lived in Vienna. 
I found this modern day photo of the location on Wikipedia. 
Look how the tree on the lower left has grown.

Maria am Gestade is a Gothic church in Vienna, Austria. One of the oldest churches in the city—it is one of the few surviving examples of Gothic architecture in the Vienna. 

This church was built c1400.
