Traditional decorated church of Pyrgi village in Chios.
The Church of the Dormition of the Virgin in Pyrgi, Chios Island (Greece), located in the middle of the Pyrgi village square, was built in 1694 and painted with archetypal goemetric shapes and floral motifs. This type of painting is called xista and it literally means "scraped". That is because the technique used is scraping the top stucco layer revealing the underlying cement layer.
And also houses of this village has been decorated same geometric pattern.

Thank you for visiting my gallery. I am Japanese, love to travel, and I love cats. I have always been fascinated with the landscape and buildings of Greece. I started taking photographs of these subjects about 20 years ago. It makes me very happy to know that others feel relaxed and pleased when they look at my work. *** The logo of "fine art america" watermark in the lower right corner of the image will not appear on the final print.
