EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable early Coptic wall mural depicting an angel. Originating from the ancient Christian monastery of Faras, which was established in 707 AD, this artwork holds immense historical and religious significance. Preserved by a team of dedicated Polish experts, these murals were safeguarded before the site succumbed to submersion by Lake Nasser after completion. The image captures the delicate brushstrokes and vibrant colors that bring this angelic figure to life.
