Camino Photo of the Day: San Juan de Furelos Sanctuary

This is the sanctuary on the little village church in Furelos. You can see the richness of design and of colour, totally unexpected based on the nondescript exterior of the building. The proportion and design are pleasing, and even the front altar – usually just sort of plopped down in front of the high altar in many Spanish churches – harmonizes with the overall design. The high altar evidently still sees some occasional use as well, as you can see Mass cards hiding behind the misplaced candles.
