Second Ceiling View

The Church of the Savior On the Spilled Blood derives its terrible name from the murder of Tsar Alexander I whose death occured under the stones where this church was built. It houses some of the most spectacular mosaics of any church on the planet, which is why I have posted all my photos of these masterpieces. This is religious art at its peak of perfection.
