EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the Monasteries of St Barlaam and Meteoron in Northern Greece, dating back to 1901. The monasteries are perched precariously on top of towering rock formations known as the Meteoron Rocks, creating a breathtaking and almost surreal sight.
The Monastery of St Barlaam is particularly striking with its intricate architecture blending seamlessly into the natural landscape. The sheer cliffs surrounding the monastery add an element of mystery and awe to this ancient religious site.
The Monastery of Meteoron, visible in the background, stands tall against the backdrop of dramatic rock formations that seem to defy gravity. These monasteries have long been symbols of faith and resilience, standing strong against both natural elements and human conflicts throughout history.
As you gaze at this photograph, you can't help but feel a sense of wonder at the dedication it must have taken to build these monasteries in such remote and challenging locations. The stark beauty of the Greek landscape only adds to the allure of these historic sites.
This print serves as a reminder of both the spiritual significance and architectural marvels found in Greece's northern regions. It transports us back in time to an era where faith moved mountains – or in this case, built monasteries on top of them.
