The Byzantine Grandeur
A day at Hagia Sophia.
Today’s random word is historian with a twist must include an original haiku.
Today, our field study takes us to the Hagia Sophia. We’re tasked with exploring Byzantine architecture. Our guide, a passionate historian as well as an architect, shares his deep admiration for this magnificent building. As we explore, I’m struck by the grandeur of the golden domes, intricate ornaments, and Corinthian columns.
After the tour, I sketch every detail, captivated by the historical weight — capturing their glory and victory. Everything fills me with awe.
In the corner of my sketchbook, I write a reflection on how the architecture has moved me:
Hagia Sophia,
Golden domes touch for heaven
Timeless splendor reigns
