During the past 5 years
Doug has
visited Mount Athos 12 times spending a total of 6 months walking
throughout the holy mountain and visiting all 20
monasteries.
The Mount Athos portfolio consists of over 200
artworks which includes sketches, water-colours and oils.
This is the most comprehensive collection since the artist
and Russian monk, Vasileios Gregorovic Barsky, who in 1745
visited Mount Athos and recorded the life, landscape and architecture of the holy
mountain.
