Ani church of St Gregory of Tigran Honents East side view 5540

view map

One of a series of pictures with details of the arcade, that runs around most of the building, in the higher reaches of the several side. This is the east side, in the shadow at the time.

I was informed that an interlace pattern is part of medieval supersititons. The interlace was believed to trap the evil. Therefore, the interlace is a kind of weapon that protects the church from evil.
