This print captures the awe-inspiring beauty of a stained glass window in Holy Trinity Cathedral, the largest Orthodox church in Ethiopia. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the artwork create a mesmerizing display that fills the entire frame. Inside this grand cathedral, during a solemn ceremony, anticipation fills the air as worshippers gather to partake in communion. The stained glass window depicts scenes from Christian faith, showcasing Jesus surrounded by his disciples. The rich symbolism and religious imagery evoke a sense of spirituality and devotion. As rays of sunlight filter through the multi-colored glass, they cast an ethereal glow upon those present. In this moment frozen in time, one can almost feel the nourishment for both body and soul being served at this sacred table. A lamb symbolizes Christ's sacrifice while bread and wine represent his body and blood shared among believers. Addis Ababa, Ethiopia's capital city, is home to this remarkable house of worship where African traditions blend harmoniously with Eastern Orthodox Christianity. This photograph not only showcases stunning artistry but also serves as a testament to Africa's deep-rooted religious heritage. Gavin Hellier/Robert Harding skillfully captures the essence of hope, faith, and spiritualism within Ethiopian culture through their lens. It is an invitation for viewers to embark on a visual journey into one of Africa's most significant religious destinations – Holy Trinity Cathedral – where color meets devotion in perfect harmony.
