Fish and Grape Church entrance with Enthroned Mother Mary 1865.jpg

This is a detail of the entrance (narthex) to the Fish and Grape Church.

It contains the only multi-coloured paintings, much damaged. We see the the Enthroned Mother Mary holding the Baby Jesus. At her side stand St. Constantine (right) and his mother, Helena (left). On the partly collapsed vault are Archangels Gabriel and Michael holding up a Maltese Cross.
