Sveta Batalina is a photographer, a traveller, a great lover of Italian culture, traditions, cuisine and spiritual heritage.

The photographer says:

"I admire these tabernacles not only as an open-air art museum, but as a manifestation of the still living tradition of the popular devotion of Florentines, who saved their faith in God despite all the temptations of our modern times. Street sacred images deeply touched my soul with their natural and sometimes naive religiosity. This sincere admiration aroused my interest, so I started to shoot and collect information, which resulted in this book."
