\nWill it still be there once the hostilities have ceased ?
\nInside the cathedral, the excavators discovered 169 wall paintings executed in tempera on dry plaster.
\nIt is the largest collection of Christian Nubian painting ever found, showing its development from the 8th to the 13th century. As part of the salvage excavations, 120 wall paintings were taken down, 66 of which were transported to the National Museum in Warsaw.
\nThe Faras Gallery there is the only exhibition of objects of Christian Nubian art from the 8th\u201314th centuries in Europe and unique on an international scale.
\nThe rest of the wall paintings are on display in the National Museum in Khartoum. Both galleries were opened in 1972; in 2014, the Warsaw gallery was reopened in a new configuration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
