wow it is stunning! I wish that even half of the workmanship went into new buildings... but I guess this makes the old ones all the more special! Do you ever imagine the lives of those who worked so painstakingly on this carving??
oh Kell, this is beautiful. I am so glad you appreciate the beauty of the older things around you. I am even more excited that you share them with us!!! I had to look up parvis of course. So it says it can be a raised area at the front of a church or a portico before a church. Which is yours?
When I look at things like that I can't help but about the person that crafted it, who were they were they proud of their work? and so on, it is beautiful!
