Photographer’s Note
A ceiling decoration from Aya Andrea church in Galata.
Before the World War 1, the Russians travelling to Jerusalem for pilgrimage came to stay in Istanbul during their travel. The upper floors of the buildings that they stayed were arranged as chapels. Today these buildings don't serve their purpose anymore but the chapels are still active as Orthodox churches.
