Description:
Codrington spent much time in Cyprus and travelled all over the island. His brushes and palette were employed to glorify the light and the colours of the landscape and to record most of the important monuments. The small Agios Evlalios chapel in Lambousa, although much photographed, is rarely depicted in watercolours or oils. The chapel was built in the 15th century over a Byzantine church of the 7th century and was renowned not only for its picturesque location by the seashore but also because it stood amongst the ruins of an ancient town.
