Cathedral with a spring blue backdrop This is largest Othodox Cathedral in the Baltics. It was designed, fittingly, in a neo-byzantine architectural style. The Nativity of Christ Cathedral (Latvian: Kristus Piedzimšanas pareizticīgo katedrāle) was built between 1876 to 1883. At that time the country was part of of the Russian Empire. The cathedral got a huge collection of religious icons, important sacred paintings in Eastern Orthodox Christianity. The celebration of the birth of Christ in Eastern Orthodoxy happens every year on January 7 in the international calendar. They follows the original roman calendar the international calendar is based on. During its lifetime the cathedral has mirrored the changing circumstansces for the Latvian Nation. In 1917 the German Empire occupied Latvia, and the Cahedral was converted to a Lutheran Christian Church. When the Empire lost the the war in 1918, the first Latvian Republic converted the Cathedral back to Ortodox Christianity. During the Soviet Union occupation, the church was closed down and turned into a planetarium. The reestablishment of the Latvian Republic in 1990s returned the church to Eastern Orthodoxy. The members are mostly part of the russian minority population in Latvia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathedral_of_the_Nativity_of_Christ,_Riga #Riga #nativity #Christ #Orthodox #Cathedral #neobyzantine #architecture #tsarempire #bluesky #springbreak #2016CE #citywalk #worldculturalheritage (at Rīgas Kristus Piedzimšanas pareizticīgo katedrāle (Rīgas Kristus Piedzimšanas pareizticīgo katedrāle (The Nativity of Christ Cathedral ))) https://www.instagram.com/p/Chpen64PWjC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Sofya’da sürekli karşınıza çıkan devasa Alexander Nevsky Katedrali. 1877-78 Osmanlı-Rus Savaşı’nda yaşamını kaybeden 200 bin Rus askerin anısına yapılmış. İçi epey karanlıktı ama yine de fotoğraflar fikir veriyor. Aynı anda 10 bin kişi alabiliyormuş. #sofia #alexandernevskycathedral #zulalsofya #neobyzantine #mimari #architecture (at Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, Sofia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgOcmdZASy4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Le dôme des Galeries Lafayette (1912), Paris. C’est au maître verrier Jacques Gruber que l’on doit la conception de cette coupole en vitrail à dix piliers, de style néo-byzantin, répondant aux ferronneries Art-Nouveau conçues par Louis Majorelle. #galerieslafayette #domedesgalerieslafayette #departmentstores #GrandsMagasins #boulevardHaussmann #rueLafayette #Paris #Paris9 #75009 #neoByzantine #neobyzantin #artNouveau #modernStyle #1912 #France #Europe #architecture #stainglass #vitrail #glassroof #verriere #JacquesGruber #maitreVerrier (at Galeries Lafayette)

Foujita (1886-1968) Nuage anatomique Projet de plafond, 1928 Collection privée

Ce projet  de plafond destiné à décorer un salon d'hôtel ou de grand restaurant ne se concrétisa jamais. Foujita devra attendre1964 et sa conversion au catholicisme, pour décider avec René Lalou, son parrain, et mécène qui dirigeait la-prestigieuse maison de champagne Mumm), de construire une chapelle peinte de fresques, à Reims. C'est la chapelle Notre-Dame-de-la-Paix, surnommée « chapelle Foujita », peinte dans un style neobyzantin extrêmement statique et très différent de cette proposition mouvementée  de plafond . où les corps s'entremêle dans un apparent chaos.
