Not far outside Calgary a private home has been designed
using elements from medieval castles.
The theme is carried through the front door... |
|
and into a large hallway with battlements
and Arches. The owner decided to fill the space above |
with a mural on a medieval theme. As muralists set to work shadows of figures appear |
Work begins from the floor with poles, creating
a composition that works from below. |
Refinements are added from scaffolding and
ladders. |
Figures on the right side of the room represent the search for enlightenment with musicians... |
monks, alchemists, pontificators and the
devout. |
On the left are those of valour who conquer, defend and celebrate. |
Between them, over the door, sits the king and heir to the throne flanked by a Royal Guard. |
