The work under review - “The Church of ‘Saint George the Great Martyr’ of ‘Saint John the New of Suceava’ Monastery. History, Faith, Culture and Civilization” by Vasile M. Demciuc, PhD, is an excellent example of such writing. Thanks to the author’s efforts readers gain knowledge about the architectural ensemble’s historical setting, the founders, inscriptions, iconostasis (Moldavian Baroque style), architecture, altar, or nave, the external painting which was severely damaged during the Habsburg period and largely covered by a thick layer of plaster. |
