The Third Day, Meteora

Texts from Holy Writ.
English translation by Cox and Solman.
Meteora is a place of awe and piety, a strange, inhuman, harsh landscape which exerts its attraction over us though it is not on our scale. Sacred relics, wood-carvings, gold-embroidered vestments, portable icons of incomparable value, and wall-paintings by the great artist Theofanis are among the items which this album presents for the first time.
