A Treasure of Old Christian Paintings in a Russian Church in a Remote Forest

by Professor William Brumfield (RBTH) One of the editors of RI actually visited this church this summer, and we can assure you, it is REMOTE!  Brumfield, in his understated way, doesn't describe the condition of the road leading to this village, but it is barely passable at times.  The number of remarkable architectural and other treasures hiding in the Russian hinterlands, especially in the north, is rather extraordinary. https://russia-insider.com/en/culture/church-korovye-abandoned-treasure-russian-art/ri16015
