Momentinterior of a church in Leshten, Bulgaria, specifically the iconostasis above the altar. A wooden ceiling with exposed beams is visible at the top. Mounted centrally is a wooden crucifix depicting Jesus Christ. Below the crucifix is a carved wooden frieze featuring two dragon-like figures on either side of a central design that includes a skull. The main feature of the iconostasis is a row of religious icons painted on a wooden panel. These icons depict various saints and biblical scenes. From left to right, the visible icons are: a male saint in red and pink robes holding a scroll; another male saint in red robes holding a book; a male saint in green robes holding a scroll; a male saint in red robes holding a scroll; and a painting of the Last Supper. Further to the right, more icons are partially visible, including a male saint in a red robe holding a book, and a male saint in a blue robe. A dark purple fabric drapes below the icons.
