This stunning print captures the beauty and historical significance of Moldovita Monastery in Bukovina, Romania. Situated in the commune of Vatra Moldovitei, Suceava County, this Romanian Orthodox monastery was built in 1532 by Petru Rares, the illegitimate son of Stefan the Great. The Monastery of Moldovita served as a protective barrier against the Muslim Ottoman conquerors from the East.
