Wooden Churches in Russia
These photographs were taken by Richard Davies for several years, since 2002.
Although the churches that remain are in varying states of decay and despite their neglect and the wrecking of their interiors, these extraordinary structures have a spiritual presence.

Merci pour la perspective de cette découverte !
je me sens très slave dans l'âme et j'adore l'ambiance de ces églises de bois .... souvenance ?
Really nice! Remind me of my Beauty of Ordinary series where I photographed old farm houses in Poland.
