Russian Orthodox Church - a photo on Flickriver

Russian Orthodox Church

            In the mid-19th Century, the first Orthodox Greek and Slavonic immigrants started arriving followed by, a few years later by the Lebanese and the Syrian. They made up a small community who asked and managed to convince Emperor Alexander II to sign a decree for the foundation in Buenos Aires of an Orthodox Church attached to the Russian Empire’s Legation in South America.
The church was designed in St. Petersburg and the work was directed by the artist Cristophersen opening in 1904. The style is Byzantine with onion-like domes on the facade and Stara symbolizing the Celestial Sphere.
