Sanctuary of the Nativity of Mary, Blessed Virgin Catholic Church, also known as the St. Mary Catholic Church, in High Hill, a little community near Schulenberg in Fayette County, Texas. This is considered the "queen" of what Texans call their "painted churches." Its decorative paintings were executed by Ferdinand Stockert and Hermann Kern in 1912. They also painted the walls and ceiling of Saint Joseph's Catholic Church in San Antonio. Original image from Carol M. Highsmith’s America, Library of Congress collection.
