St. Athanasius, 14th century, Kalista near Struga South from the monastery of Kalista, adjacent to the surrounding rocks, is the cave church dedicated to the Archbishop of Alexandria - Athanasius. The greatest composition of medieval fine art in the Struga district is preserved inside this church. <br /> <br />Although no written sources have been preserved, the stylistic notes of these frescos very clearly indicate their 14-century origin. <br /> <br />Observing the overall artwork and its distinctions, the preserved images of the holy characters and the few compositions of the Great Holidays reveal the talent of a skilled artist who knew his trade and who painted the famous characters from the Holy Bible with love. A portion of the artwork was re-painted in 19th century as well.This is a production of http://www.travelmediagroup.com and is broadcast through the http://www.worldpressmedia.com network, Press Fams are organized courtesy of http://www.pressfams.com
