Description

The collection includes images of churches, monasteries, mural paintings, icons, liturgical vessels, cult objects, and everyday life items – objects related in different ways to Byzantine art. Some of them – the religious ones – kept the conservative form of the models, while others, like cult objects – pilgrim offerings, donor items, secular accessories etc. – fell easily under the influence of the dominant Ottoman culture or accepted the new trends of the Western European culture. The presented pictures reveal a large part of the religious buildings in Bulgaria – temples from the 1st century AD, rock-hewn monasteries, medieval churches and churches of 19th century, the most flourishing period in the construction of Christian buildings. Some of the buildings do not exist anymore.
