EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of a Greek Orthodox church in Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece, a stunning detail of an icon of Christ is displayed during Easter week. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the painting seem to come alive as the light pours in through the stained glass windows.

During Easter week, they are often displayed prominently in churches across Greece to commemorate the resurrection of Christ. This particular icon is a testament to the skillful craftsmanship and artistic talent that has been passed down through generations.

As visitors enter this sacred space during Easter week, they are met with an atmosphere filled with prayer, music, and celebration.
