The labyrinth in the Cathedral of Our Lady of Chartres, France
And a Wind Rose...
A Wind Rose, on the floor of the Sant'Ignazio di Loyola church, in Campo Marzio, Rome, gives you the perfect point of view to look at the magnificent Andrea Pozzo's trompe-l'oeil. But from another standing point, on another wind rose on the same floor, the truth is revealed.
To escape from your labyrinth you have to find the right Wind Rose...
This record is produced in 16 different covers, as the wind rose directions are. Choose your favorite wind direction. I have mine, and she's the queen of the winds.
Il labirinto nella cattedrale di Nostra Signora di Chartres, in Francia
E una rosa dei venti ...
Una Rosa dei Venti, sul pavimento della chiesa di Sant'Ignazio di Loyola, in Campo Marzio, a Roma, offre il punto di vista perfetto per ammirare il magnifico trompe-l'oeil di Andrea Pozzo. Ma da un altro punto di vista, su un'altra rosa dei venti sullo stesso piano, la verità è rivelata.
Per sfuggire al tuo labirinto devi trovare la rosa dei venti giusta ...
Questo disco è prodotto in 16 copertine diverse, come lo sono le direzioni delle rose dei venti. Scegli la tua direzione del vento preferita. Ho il mio, la regina dei venti.
