Monasticism, a timeless spiritual practice, has left its mark on various corners of the world. In Ireland's enchanting County Galway lies Kylemore Abbey, an awe-inspiring testament to monastic life. With Dennis' credit-worthy capture, the abbey stands proudly against the backdrop of Connemara's breathtaking views. Traveling further east to County Sligo, Ballindoon Abbey graces the shores of Lough Arrow. This historic abbey exudes tranquility as it overlooks the serene lakefront. Its ancient walls whisper tales of devotion and contemplation. Glendalough in Co. Wicklow boasts the Chapel of Saint Kevin and its iconic Round Tower. These sacred structures stand as guardians over this mystical place where spirituality intertwines with nature's beauty. Venturing southward to Co Tipperary brings us face-to-face with Rock Of Cashel - a majestic site steeped in religious history. The imposing ruins bear witness to centuries of faith and devotion that have shaped Ireland's cultural landscape. Crossing borders into Cyprus takes us high up into Troodos Mountains where Kykkos Monastery awaits visitors with its "Winged Stairway to Heaven. " This mosaic masterpiece is a visual representation of asceticism leading towards divine enlightenment. Italy beckons us next to Coldirodi, where we encounter captivating artwork depicting "The Temptations of Saint Anthony. " Through these vivid portrayals, we glimpse into the struggles faced by those who embraced monastic life. Miguel Cabrera's attributed painting introduces us to St Bernard of Clairvaux - an influential figure within monasticism whose teachings continue to inspire generations seeking spiritual solace. Intriguingly morbid yet spiritually profound is "The Death of St Liberata, " depicted in a fresco from 1798. This artwork reminds us that even in death, monks find eternal peace through their unwavering commitment to their beliefs.
