Georgian Orthodox churches are much more shiny and traditionally Eastern and Byzantine. Much more my style. Byzantine shape and lots of icons and relics. More frescos than mosaics. It is the church of St Andrew with wonderful stories of nun-saints from Cappadocia; eclipses; pagans; and Constantinople.

( Skip this whole section if you aren’t as passionately in love with early Byzantine ecclesiastic art as I am. )

From a selection of different churches. There are 700 more photos like this. Bring wine to my house and I will show you some time.
