EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing Sea Serpent mosaic found at Kykkos Monastery in the Troodos Mountains of Cyprus. The artwork, created by talented Cypriot icon painters and others from Greece and Romania, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of this region. Kykkos Monastery, founded by Byzantine emperor Alexios I Komnenos, holds great significance as one of the most renowned monasteries in Cyprus. Its opulence and wealth are evident in this stunning mosaic that adorns its walls. The Sea Serpent mosaic depicts a mythical creature with vibrant colors and intricate details. With elements of dolphins, dragons, and other sea creatures intertwined into its form, it exudes an air of mystique and wonder. The bold depiction captures the essence of both Christian symbolism and ancient mythology. As part of the UNESCO World Heritage site in Troodos Mountains, this artwork represents not only religious doctrine but also celebrates Cyprus' diverse fauna and sealife. The vivid imagery transports viewers to an underwater world filled with waves crashing against colorful scales and horned creatures emerging from the depths. This print serves as a reminder of the harmonious blend between Eastern Orthodox Christianity and Cypriot culture. It invites us to appreciate both the artistic mastery behind such mosaics as well as their spiritual significance within monasticism.
