Just two years ago, St. Sophia Greek Orthodox church opened it’s doors of their new church. High above the congregation, Athenian painter Georgios Kordis and his staff, completed the iconography. The mineral pigment, white wine and yoke technique was hailed for it’s historic Byzantine process. This month, Kordis is back, working on the interior wall entrance. It promises to be just as stunning and moving. Image courtesy of Eleftherios Kostans.
