May 2023 meeting of Urban Sketchers Luxembourg at Domaine Bricherhaff

For our May 2023 meeting of Urban Sketchers Luxembourg we had the chance to sketch in the quiet and beautiful garden of Domaine Bricherhaff in Neudorf/Kirchberg. 

A prominent resident of Bricherhaff from 1953 to 1955 was Jean Monnet, at that time the first president of the "Higher Authority" (Haute Autorité de la Communauté européenne du charbon et de l'acier ). Currently it is the residence of the Dutch Ambassador in Luxembourg.

We met at 2 pm sharp at the entrance, where we had a warm welcome from His Excellency the Dutch Ambassador. We could sketch for more than two hours in the peaceful and lush garden. The rain showers waited patiently until our sketches and paintings were finished!

To get a whiff of this afternoon, you can watch this short youtube video.

… and these wonderful sketches, water colors and pastels:
