| 説明 | Since much of the exterior of the Anchiskhati Basilica was under restoration and hence covered in scaffolding, I walked a few steps beyond and tried to capture the fabulous gold plated cross atop the church tower, which was contrasting splendidly with the clear blue sky. Bright sun unfortunately made the cross look white in the picture. Oh well. The look of the structure of the bascilica was drastically changed in the 1870s, when a dome was added. During the Soviet period, all religious ceremonies at Anchiskhati Basilica were halted, and the building transformed into a museum for handicrafts. It was later used as an art studio. From 1958 to 1964 restoration works took place in celebration of the 1500th Jubilee of the founding of Tbilisi, which changed the view of the church back to the seventeenth-century version, however, it was not until 1991, after the independence of Georgia was restored, that the basilica reverted to religious use. The Anchiskhati Choir based out of the Anchiskhati Basilica is the world's leading exponent of Georgian polyphonic choral music. (Tbilisi, Georgia, Sept. 2016) |
