This photography exhibition illustrates human interaction with the sacred in Istanbul (Constantinople), Mount Sinai, Osios Loukas (Greece), and Cyprus.From the magnificent Hagia Sofia to paintings of individuals in a humble village church, these images document the ways in which the Orthodox faithful sought, and still seek, to proffer piety. The exhibit will be on display from October 5 until March 2. For more information: http://www.yale.edu/ism/events/PeoplePietyandSacredPowerintheEasternMedi…
