Wall by Monastery of Horezu.

Founded in 1690 by Prince Constantine Brancovan of Valachia, the monastery of Horezu, is a masterpiece of the 'Brancovan' style. It is known for its architectural purity and balance, the richness of its sculptural detail, the treatment of its religious compositions, its votive portraits and its painted decorative works. The school of mural and icon painting established at the monastery in the 18th century was famous throughout the Balkan region.

Great concept! Good sharpness and colours. I'll change nothing here so it's time to say: GOOD WORK!

Fascinating! Incredible stone work. I like that you included the greenery to soften the feel of the hard stone and to help naturally frame the composition. Good light and contrast for rich quality. Well done:)
