Push churches and chapels’ doors, some of them will unveil some treasures. Here and there, Nicolaï Greschny reveals his art. Mural paintings and byzantin inspiration icons covering a section or the whole of these edifices. Nicolaï Greschny is one of the greatest contemporary fresco-painter, a master in byzantine art.
His work provokes you, fascinates you, incites you to journey and to meditation. The icons beauty and the vibrant colours command contemplation.
If you wish to continue the journey through Greschny’s frescos, let’s meet in the Mounts of Alban. At Alban’s church, they adorn the vault and illustrate the gospels.
