Bulgarian Church Murals

A friend of mine recently toured the Balkans, and came back with some beautiful shots of the murals in a Bulgarian church with an interesting story behind them. It seems that during the communist era in Bulgaria, the people are not encouraged to paint murals of important events in Christianity on the walls. So this church came up with an ingenious idea : A combination of irrelevant pictures in drab colours and significant pictures in vivid tones. The results are unique and beautiful.
