The Sunlit Riddle of Arches

The artwork features an expansive Gothic arcade unfolding laterally in rhythmic succession, its pointed arches and clustered columns forming a monumental maze bathed in radiant noon light. Sunbeams stream through open tracery and fractured vaults, casting intricate, lace-like shadows across the worn stone floor and emphasizing the fresco’s softly weathered plaster texture. The balanced perspective and repeating architectural motifs create a contemplative tension between clarity and mystery, transforming the labyrinth into a sacred passage suspended between revelation and concealment.
