Looking back through my travel photos I see that in many places there was, on our agendas, an Abbey, Cathedral, Chapel, Church, Convent, Monastery, Mosque, Pagoda, Synagogue, Temple or other place of worship. As we travel along the road I often take snaps of God's houses we pass by. These buildings range from ordinary to ostentatious.
For the Blogging from A to Z April 2024 Blogging Challenge my theme is Gods' Houses. During April I invite you to join me for an online tour of Gods' Houses from my digital albums.
My R phrase is Religious Art. I'm taking a broad brush to this topic and including Paintings, Calligraphy, Mosaics, Carvings, Friezes, Sculptures, Statues, Tapestries, Frescoes and any other media I find interesting.

ReplyDeleteThanks Krisitn
DeleteSome of this art is really lovely, Jill. The Vietnamese is a little terrifying.
