Very interesting blog on the cleaning of Coptic murals at the monastery of Surian, Wadi al-Natrun, Egypt, with a video on work to clean and preserve the murals that contains a Coptic chant – very nice. Wadi al-Natrun, a large depression located to the west of Cairo, contains some of the most interesting of Egypt’s monasteries and earlier pharaonic remains.
