With its clear-glass, brightly-lit, whitewashed interior, Harvard Divinity School's Andover Chapel reflects all the values of elite Protestant culture in New England history: quiet prayer, thoughtful sermons, an approach to God through the heart rather than the senses, and a minimum of iconic reminders that the space is Christian. And it was here, in April 2007, that this author beheld the Voudoun spirits Danbala and Ogoun arrive through several experienced mediums.

Title: The Concept of Sacredness in the Architectural Design of Peter Zumthor; Case Study: Saint Benedict Chapel and Bruder Klaus Chapel The sacredness of space is crucial for Catholic worship, allowing the congregation to feel God's presence. Peter Zumthor's architecture prioritizes spatial ambiance by engaging all senses, using appropriate materials, and harmonizing buildings with their sites. His Saint Benedict Chapel and Bruder Klaus Chapel exemplify his design principles.

Abstract:

A frieze of mounted knights, over 15m long, dominates the nave of the church of All Saints, Claverley, Shropshire. It is part of an extensive mural scheme from the first quarter of the thirteenth century. For the first time the status of Claverley as a Royal Chapel is recognized and the royal and crusading character of the imagery is discussed. The emperors Constantine and Heraclius are identified as part of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross subject on the north wall, and the Holy Cross is suggested as the unifying theme, pre-dating the Florentine mural cycle by Agnolo Gaddi by some 170 years.

Abstract:

In recent decades, a significant number of works have been published in Russian ethnology, devoted to the study of various forms of religiosity of the population in direct connection with certain territories in different historical periods, which has become established in science as a special concept and approach called “religious landscape”. This approach turned out to be productive in identifying the peculiarities of the spread of Orthodox traditions in a certain territory, as well as in solving modern all-Russian problems of preserving the cultural heritage of rapidly disappearing villages.

‘Catholic Art’ is art produced for catholic patrons, which includes iconographic works in visual arts, sculptures, architecture, and decorative and applied arts.

However, not all Christians are Catholics, but all Catholics are Christians. The Mangaluru case study centers on the prominent Italian Artist Priest, Fra. Antonio Moscheni SJ (1854-1905).

The 19 th century was a time when, as noted by Michael Thimann, there occurred a transition of painting from the sphere of worship to the space of art. The parting of the paths of art and the sacred sphere also affected a genre as important for connecting these spheres as altar painting. The present paper discusses Henryk Siemiradzki’s altar paintings, which constitute this outstanding academic artist’s attempts to place painting intended for worship in churches. Siemiradzki created several altar paintings: starting with a copy of "Christ on the Cross" by Johann Köler (1867), then his own vers

Abstract:

The Imperial, Patriarchal and Stauropegial Monastery of Panagia Soumela (meaning "of black (mountain)" in Greek) is located on the western slopes of Mount Melas, in the Maçka district of Trebizond province in modern Turkey. The tradition places its foundation to the 4th century and attributes its establishment to two Athenian monks, Barnabas and Sophronios, who supposedly discovered in a cave an icon of the Virgin, said to have been painted by Saint Luke. During its long history, the Monastery was destroyed and restored several times. During the 6th century, it was restored and enlarged by the

The Church of Saint Nicholas Orphanos (meaning "orphan" in Greek) is located in the higher part of the city of Thessaloniki (Ano Poli), near the western walls. It is dated to the second decade of the 14th century. The title "Orphanos" or "of the Orphans" attributed to the church appears in sources of the 17th and the 18th centuries. It was associated either with the unknown founder of the church and his family, or, with the status of Saint Nicholas, who is considered the patron of widows and orphans. The construction of the monument is probably dated by its wall paintings, dated between 1310-1

It consists of a hall terminating in an apse and with a central dome, with the exterior largely concealed behind a more modern system of wood roofing and trellising characteristic of the region, and is possessed of an unusually masterful and complete cycle of religious frescos dating to the year 1192.

Amathous, on the south coast of Cyprus, was an ancient city and one of the ancient royal cities of the island, which became home to the homonymous bishopric in the 4th century CE. Among the city's impressive remains are the five Early Christian basilicas. The first, situated at the Acropolis of the city was uncovered by the French Archaeological mission in 1975. This is the latest of the Amathous basilicas built during the late 6th or the early 7th century CE on the foundations of the temple of Aphrodite, destroyed by an earthquake in the 6th century CE.

The so-called mausoleum of Galla Placidia was initially an annex chapel of a cross-shaped basilica with aisleless arms, which is known under the name of S. Croce (the Holy Cross). This church was founded between 425 and 450, by Galla Placidia, the daughter of emperor Theodosius I (Theodosius the Great). Nowadays, only the ruins of the S. Croce basilica are preserved. The annex chapel was an oratory dedicated to S. Lorenzo Fomoso. However, it seems that it was intended to host the tomb of Galla Placidia. This never happened because the empress died in Rome and she was buried there. The mausoleu

Abstract:

This article presents an analysis of the heraldry of the Samogitian castellan Michał Jan Gorski (1717–1776), based on the 36 seals he used, three types of armorial stove tiles and two marks of patronage (at the Dominican Church of the Holy Spirit in Vilnius and the Telšiai Cathedral). These sources highlighted the development of his heraldry, while the application of semiotics and the social history approach helped reveal the motives for why the castellan used his much-admired marital coat of arms for so long.The heraldry used by Gorski may be divided into two stages. In the first (up to 1753)

Nea Moni (meaning "new monastery" in Greek) on the Greek island of Chios, dedicated to the Mother of God, was founded according to tradition by three local hermits Niketas, John, and Joseph. The three monks had built a small church on the spot where they had found a miraculous icon of the Virgin Mary hanging on a tree, during the period of the reign of emperor Michael IV (1034-1041). During this period Constantine Monomachos was exiled on the island of Lesbos. The three monks who had a divine revelation travelled from Chios to Lesbos in order to announce him that he would soon become emperor.
