Crosses of Belarus (part LXXIII), Plotnitsa 2017.

The house in the background is also worth noting for the fine detailing of its frieze and the stylized swans of the window lintels.

Churches of Belarus (part CCXVIII):  Orthodox church of the Intercession (1781, 1873), Plotnitsa 2017.

The shifting light changed the impression of the church every few seconds.  It was again a relief to see that the parish has not removed the traditional cupolas in favor of alien, garish gleaming onion domes.

Цэрквы Беларусі (частка CCXVIII):  царква Покрыва Прасьвятой Багародзіцы (1781, 1873), Плотніца 2017 г.

 

 

 

 

 

Plotnitsa has its share of wooden houses with fine design work in the window lintels, friezes and gables.

Плотніца ахоўвае прыгожую спадчыну традыцыйных ліштваў, фрызаў ды шчытаў.
