He caught with his lens the mysterious and evocative atmosphere of the natural and human landscape of the monastic state: monastic architecture, scenes of everyday monastic life, portraits of monks, pieces of art treasures (including 38 pictures of icons and mural paintings). Two hundred photographs collected in this volume illustrate a masterly example of orthodox christian liturgical action and spirituality, but also a landscape of rare natural beauty.
