    Looks like it's the church in Assissi Italy (Bascilica of Saint Clare) in which the ceremony was photographrf. The postcard was mailed in Italy, giving the destination country as Inglaterra (England in Italian.) The note says the photo from which the painting was done was during "the consecration" a significant portion of the Communion ceremony when the bread and wine are blessed and made holy.

    Who the artist was does not appear to be designated on the card.
