Ethiopian Religious Art

The first two pictures are from churches on the islands on Lake Tana. We were told they were genuine 13th century, and the paint made from natural substances. We noticed some of them depicted rifles and trainers. In one church, we found the murals being touched up from pots of paint!

Some of my photos are now available to buy in a variety of sizes and finishes, or as digital files, at Serenity Photography.
