"Pictures in Russian Worship" include black and white sketches of Vespers, Matins and the Divine Liturgy. This is really nice.

Very nice indeed, Ray. Thanks for sharing the link. There are also a number of other interesting texts on the parent site.

Many years,

Neil

I didn't know the Orthodox knelt as much as these pictures represent, especially in "Evensong." How much kneeling really is done in Orthodox churches outside of the average St. John Chrysostom Sunday liturgy?

They are simply sublime. They are beautiful, and add a touch.
