1. The Cathedral of St. Sophia -- The Christ Pantocrator mosaic in the Cathedral of St.Sophia is a stunning example of the Byzantine influence on early Christian art in Russia

2. Basil, fool for Christ or Basil, Wonderworker of Moscow -- In the Orthodox tradition, a “fool” for Christ refers to a person whose behavior departs from the norms of society due to his or her spiritual calling. For example, Vasily was known for eccentric behavior such as walking about unclothed and for wearing chains, as well as for harshly criticizing those who he thought lacked compassion for the poor.
