Scale models of traditional stone buildings

Category: Tag:
Description

Meticulously made scale models of bridges, churches, monasteries, houses of the Zagorochoira (villages in Zagori) and close by Mastorochoria.

 

Each model takes more than a year to complete and is made from the same material (stone and grouting material) as the original buildings.
The artist comes from a line of masonry builders from Mastorochoria, a renowned area that is the home of traditional stonemasons (mastores in Greek) for more than 100 years that constructed buildings all over Greece.
