"Founded in 1690 by Prince Constantine Brancovan, the monastery of
Horezu, in Walachia, is a masterpiece of the 'Brancovan' style. It is
known for its architectural purity and balance, the richness of its
sculptural detail, the treatment of its religious compositions, its
votive portraits and its painted decorative works. The school of mural
and icon painting established at the monastery in the 18th century was
famous throughout the Balkan region." -http://whc.unesco.org
