To pass the time today I put together this puzzle of St. Basil's Cathedral. The church was commissioned by Ivan The Terrible and built on the edge of Red Square between 1555 and 1561. It commerates Ivan The Terrible's successful military campaign against the Tartar Mongols in 1552 in the besieged city of Kazan. The design comprises nine individual chapels, each topped with a unique onion dome and each commemorating a victorious assault on the city of Kazan. The interior is a maze of galleries winding from chapel to chapel and level to level.
Taking my time it took a couple of hours to go from this
to this.

I had fun with this while Duane went to a chiropractor.
New glasses tomorrow.
