Fernand Cuville head entrance Vatopedi. Autochrome, very early colour photographie 1918.

Almost the same shot (by hv) but now in sept. 2009.

The stained glas window is not the same as in 1918. Maybe it is the old glas but they changed the composition.

This is by Robert Byron 1928 witer of the book The Station Athos: Treasures and Men.
