Object Description
A photographic print. Portrait photo in full color printed on high-gloss photo paper. The photo has a white border around the edges that create a frame of sorts around the image. The bottom portion is larger than the other edges, and contains a caption printed in black text. The photo is of an elder man dressed in the vestiments of a Greek Orthodox clergyman. He has a black headpiece with the fabric draping down his back, well past his shoulders, a play robe with long sleeves, and a very ornate gold medallion containing an image of the Virgin Mary on a long gold chain around his neck. In his left hand he holds a red book with a gold cross and decorative elements on the corners of the cover. His other hand rests on the wooden table in front of him. He has a long, bushy beard and mustache that is mostly white, with a dark grey patch on his chin. He has large, black framed glasses. He is sitting at a table. Behind him are wooden shelving units filled with books.2001
