Allan, I love the way you add to the description of your life with each new painting. In this one, the subject matter is unexpected. Sometimes the setting (as in the elevator) is unexpected, but really it's all part of your realm. It is as much a description of your rich imagination as of your outer environment.
The simplicity and serenity of this one is so striking. I love the colors and brushstrokes of the scene outside the window--like a jewel--with the bell-ringer's profile silhouetted against the light. It makes a compelling focal point. The arches of the deep window niche pull your eye to the left, while the figure balances the composition to the right. You probably arranged the intuitively but I couldn't resist commenting on it. I also admire the way you painted the textured walls, the man's face, and the folds of his gown in the light.
