A work of art 


Flatey church was decorated on the inside by an Icelandic artist named Baltasar. He used the faces of the locals in his very special paintings... f.ex. Jesus is wearing jeans and an Icelandic sweater and has the face of his son who is an actor :o)

Beautiful place. And who knows - maybe high quality Icelandic sweaters were what Jesus liked the most? :)
