On the occasion of the King’s Birthday celebration in the United Kingdom, a new photo album titled “The Royal Paths of Transylvania” was launched in Bucharest, highlighting King Charles III’s deep connection with Romania.
The album was presented on Saturday during the opening ceremony of an exhibition of the same name, which was hosted at Bucharest cultural centre ARCUB.
His Beatitude Patriarch Daniel of the Romanian Orthodox Church was represented at the event by protosyncellus Augustin Coman, patriarchal counsellor and head of the External Relations Department of the Patriarchal Administration.
“The presence of the Orthodox Church at this event reflects the esteem we hold for His Majesty King Charles, who is a friend of Orthodoxy, a friend of Romanian Orthodoxy, and, one might even say, an ambassador of Orthodoxy,” stated Fr. Augustin Coman.
He added, “This photo exhibition reminds me once again that beauty is always a revelation of God. It can take many forms, and this exhibition, which captures images from Transylvania, reveals the sacramental character of creation — a medium for purification and an encounter with God.”
The album features photographs of the village of Breb in Maramureș, considered by many as a Maramureșan paradise.
The exhibition is part of the Romania Student Tour program, an original initiative to rediscover and promote Romania’s cultural and natural heritage.
