Don't know.

It looks something to do with Orthodox missions to the early Americas.

 

[Volnutt]

Yeah, either that or to Siberian Natives.

I don't know if somebody posted these before, but I think they are beautiful.

Is that a new painting? I've been seeing it all over lately, but never before now.

Transfiguration

Epiphany

Noah's Ark

The Noah's Ark one reminds me of Fernando Botero's work.

What a meaningful work of art.  I was going to ask if the artists was Bulgarian but I see that he has Russian roots from some of his paintings.

Some art of James Tissot, a roman catholic french artist that traveled to the Holy Land to have some inspiration for his biblical scenes in watercolor. I found some elements of his art quite evocative to eastern christianity, specially the vestments of the angels.

You're welcome.  As an aside, the schemamonk in the painting looks like Hieroschemamonk Gabriel (Bunge).
