Sounds interesting. I love it when someone who actually lived on Mount Athos draws what he saw with his own eyes, and not just from books. Will there be any paintings from the Kaliva of St. John the Baptist at the exhibition?

Yes, there will certainly be some from New Scythia, Dušan, because Father Paisija from Kaliva Saint John the Theologian is also among the speakers afterwards. It's interesting to me how Xenopoulos combined personal experience with what he draws - it's not some tourist postcard. I want to hear what he says at the book launch.
