Sucevita Monastery is a valuable symbol of Bucovina, one of the most beautiful areas of Romania, where time sometimes seems to stand still.
Along with the other painted churches in the north of Moldavia, Sucevita is noted for its exceptional frescoes with a narrative tendency, depicting the lives of saints such as St. George the Martyr and St. Nicholas the Hierarch. Fascinated by the monastery’s murals, the French scholar Paul Henry said that the frescoes at Sucevita represent “the testament of classical Moldavian art”, confirming once again their inestimable cultural value.
Sucevita Monastery is the last church with painted walls in the chain of Bukovina churches and it comes as a link between the traditional style established by the rulers of Moldavia and the new style emerging in the 16th century
Thus, the monastery church is built in the established style, combining elements of Byzantine and Gothic art, but is surrounded by high, thick walls with defensive towers, similar to medieval fortresses
Each of the monasteries in the North of Moldavia has a specific colour that stands out in the murals, and if at Voroneศ we find the fascinating, electrifying blue, at Sucevitsa the red colour impresses, hypnotising and captivating the eye
