Item Description

Precise, Hand-drawn, Hand-painted, Chartres
Cathedral Labyrinth Center Rosette on Canvas

CHOICE of line color

This unique piece is a dimensionally accurate replica of
the center Rosette of the Chartres Cathedral Labyrinth. It measures about 11.7 feet square, and has the precise measurements of the original Rosette.

It will be created by Paxworks labyrinth maker John
Ridder especially in honor of the work of Veriditas in spreading the labyrinth experience throughout the world.

 Imagine re-creating the special experience of arriving
and receiving, in the center of the Chartres Cathedral Labyrinth without the jet lag and TSA hassles!

 Because the rosette is round, and the canvas is square, a
portion of the next few paths are shown in the corners. This gives a hint of the greater journey beyond the space you occupy.  The work includes subtle representation of the
many joints between the stones.

Item Special Note

 This canvas was once “connected by its threads” to a full
size canvas labyrinth made by Paxworks and being walked by somebody, somewhere.
(When we prepare and join the canvas the scraps are saved to be donated to schools, charities, or sometimes to become
unique artwork. )

 It will be completed after the auction as both as a
meditation on the end of the year, and in preparation for my journey to meet with the Veriditas Council in November in Boulder Colorado

 In the tradition of labyrinth makers worldwide, the
artist signature is humbly placed on the back of the canvas.

 It will be blessed with sacred waters from the crypt at
Chartres Cathedral.
