Megisti Lavra, May 2017 with on the left, behind the trees, the tower of the arsanas. We tried to locate the exact spot where the black and white image below was taken. This is the best we could do.
Lavra, probably around 1880. The old cypress in the courtyard on the leftside is the only tree who survived over the years.
