Description
Monastery of Saint Catherine (Spanish: Santa Catalina). It's a monastery of nuns of the Domincan Second Order, located in Arequipa, Peru. It was built in 1580 and was enlarged in the 17th century. The over 20,000-square-meter monastery was built predominantly in the Mudéjar style, and is characterized by its vividly painted walls. There are approximately 20 nuns currently living in the northern corner of the complex; the rest of the monastery is open to the public.

Congratulations for being a winner in our Wisconsin Flowers and Scenery sponsored contest . It is a true honor to display your winning pieces of art on the top featured section of our homepage. Your images that won will remain on our homepage for one week, when we change them for winners from the newest contest. Please join us on our new contest and maybe you will be featured next Saturday as one of our winners. It is an honor to place in this contest, as it is judged by your fellow artists, and there were so many beautiful pieces, that the judging was not very easy. Randy B. Rosenberger Admin. of WFS group
