The story and depiction of an extraordinary artistic undertaking by the Zimbabwean artist
Helen Lieros
to paint huge murals in the Greek Orthodox Cathedral of Archangels Michael and Gabriel
at Maputo, Mozambiqueover the period 1996 – 2013.
This 300 page book traces, through its generous illustrations of the murals, drawings, sketches
and descriptive texts, the artist’s struggle – mentally, physically, artistically and spiritually –
to execute some twenty murals and other works.
It is a book, not only for artists, art lovers and art students,
but for galleries, museums, libraries and the general public.
