I'm continuing my Moldavian Monasteries series with this detail of an wall of the Agapia Monastery.

Agapia is situated just a few kilometres away from the previous one (Varatec).
The monastery’s name derives from the hermit Agapie who founded initially a wooden hermitage in the place called “Parents’ Orchard” at the end of the 14th century (The Old Agapia). The monastery was restored by the ruler Petru Rares (1541-1546), when it was built the first Princely Church and after that it concerned two other rulers Peter the Limp and Duca Voivode. It was during the 16th century when the Old Agapia was moved to its actual place (New Agapia). New Agapia Monastery was built by hetman Gavriil, brother of Vasile Lupu, the ruler of that time. Between 1858 -1862 the monastery was repainted by the famous Romanian painter Nicolae Grigorescu, who was 20 years old at that time.

Wonderful picture Vlad !
Very well composed and with extremely balanced tones. Whites are stunning !
The open window gives a pleasant motion tone to the entire picture, it seems like 'someone is in...'. Its shadow on the wall is very attractive too.

COMPLIMENTI !
Ciao,
Silvio

Great architecture and window patterns. I like your POV Vlad, showing us the shapes and shadows. Well done,
Janice

an interesting comp and angle, a lovely play of lines, light and shadow, thanx, M, (*_*)

O alta poza din seria 'Ferestre', si inca una foarte reusita. Zidul alb, fereastra rotunda, umbrele pe zid, ornamentul din parte de sus, fereastra de jos, cu geamul intunecat... imi place toata aceasta compozitie, cat si faptul ca exista doar doua culori (prin forta lucrurilor): alb si negru. Reusita.

Agapia e oricum superba si te-ai jucat frumos cu liniile si umbrele. Cat despre BW, din cate imi amintesc eu acolo albul e la putere, asa ca vrei nu vrei tot aia iese.
...si-ii pacat sa inchei seria, poate mai gasesti vreo cateva...

i like it.its just great. best regards.mimoza

Frumoasa imagine..Unghi reusit.
Simplicitatea imaginii da un charme deosebit acestei fotografii..

Felicitari..

Imi scapase.

Perfectiunea simplitatii, ce fain e cand o vezi !
Numai bine !
