Winter Vigil at the Transfiguration Chapel
Oil on Canvas · 35 × 50 cm
Blanketed in deep winter snow, the Chapel of the Transfiguration of the Saviour rests upon the summit of Mount Athos. Its ancient-looking stone walls and rounded apses emerge from the white drifts, while a frost-covered cross rises from the rocky ground nearby. Beneath the deep blue sky, the contrast between delicate snow and enduring stone evokes the silence and isolation of this sacred mountain. The painting captures a moment of stillness, where nature and Orthodox spiritual tradition exist in quiet harmony.
