    Feel kind of sorry I did not get this. It was painted very finely but could not find anything on the artist so I passed it. Any suggestions on the location?

    That church could be anywhere...but the cars look USA & maybe 1990's.

    Don't most churches have some kind of ID right in the front....

    Maybe it doesn't even exist....just an artists rendition for a possible design ! :artist:

    Looks like an architect's 'artist impression' for a client.

    Hi,
    I agree with AF but the steeple is in the front. This is a rendering of the back and the parking lot.

    It's very hard to distinguish between churches and gymnasiums anymore.

    gymnasia?

    That's what I was thinking as well, gym, or even shopping mall, but then I noticed the cross on the far left of the building.

    Definitely an architect's rendering and may have never been built. Based on the cars, I think late 70s or early 80s. This is pretty late for such things since computer aided design eliminated this type of drawing soon after. I have done well with such things when I can find them. The ones from the 50s and early 60s are the most sought after. This being later and of a church might limit its appeal.

    That red mini van with the slanted front is at best mid 80's when the mini van craze hit !

    Perhaps the church facilities were being expanded/added onto the original structure - thus the "odd" location of the steeple and the view from the back versus the front/entry.

    Architectural but enhanced rendition to show people what they're getting for their contributions to the Building Fund.

    Probably one of a series showing the church from multiple angles.
