The painted dome of the Frauenkirche in Dresden depicts eight biblical figures/principles: the four apostles (John, Matthew, Mark, and Luke) and allegories of the four virtues (faith, love, hope, and mercy).

What a beautiful piece of art, you captured it wonderfully!
Beautiful photograph.
I would have thought that it was stained glass if you hadn't said painted, that is around the finest dome work I have ever seen. Terrific snap of a gorgeous subject.
A nice take on this theme - beautiful photo.
So delicate and beautiful - your photo is breathtaking!
Wonderful photo and a wonderful way to address the theme.
Nice. I like colors and how they stand out in the dome versus the spandrels and the asymmetric lights. Sweet shot.
Beautiful photo and wonderfully captured. Amazing work on this dome too.
Oh, hi!!
I have completely missed that you are doing this year's 365. How did I manage to miss that? Anyway, I am adding you to the blogroll again and looking forward to following you this year as well.
Beautiful shot.
I've been looking at your blog and find that you have very interesting posts about your city and life. Since I am babysitting our GS, and don't have access to my photos, I have had more time to look around and leave comments. I enjoy your photography....
Absolutely Awesome,
you have it...
All your photos are very good. Thanks.
What a great eight, very pretty.
