Church of the Virgin Hodegetria
Church of the Virgin Hodegetria, Orthodox church in Rostov Kremlin, Russia.
The Church of the Virgin Hodegetria contains three-colored murals applied directly to the brick walls, displaying rich architectural patterns throughout its structure.
Metropolitan Jonah supervised the construction of this religious edifice between 1670 and 1693, establishing it as part of the expanding Rostov Kremlin complex.
The church exhibits Moscow Baroque style moldings and decorative elements, representing the architectural preferences of late 17th century Russian religious buildings.

Diamond patterns adorn the exterior walls, demonstrating the influence of Italian architectural techniques adapted for Russian Orthodox church design.
