Helmet Shaped Domes of Intercession Cathedral in Suzdal under Cirrus Cloud


Summer day view of the beautiful gilded helmet-shaped domes of the majestic Cathedral of the Intercession in background of the blue sky with amazing high level cirrus cloud. The cathedral was built on the grounds of the Pokrovsky (Intercession) convent in Suzdal in 1510-1518. In Medieval times, the helmet shaped domes of Orthodox Churches served as a reminder of the spiritual warfare waged by the Church against the forces of darkness and evil.
