Meticulously designed in detail, who knows if especially so that the observer can experience for himself that overload of Art that in Psychology is still known as the Sthendal Syndrome
Hello, dear friend @juancar347. The Sthendal Syndrome is definitely at work here as I almost became mentally drunk upon seeing this fantastic chapel with all its marvelous paintings, sculptures, and artworks. Almost no walls, crevices, and surfaces of the main interior are left blank as most of them are adorned with the tremendous beauty of artistic installations. It's indeed a mesmerizing feeling to be immersed in the creative grandeur of such architecture.
Which painting inside the chapel attracted you the most and why?
My dear friend, @storiesoferne: that is precisely the problem. That you get drunk on Art and lose a little notion of things, especially details, which is what, from my point of view, makes the interwoven threads between stories continue, so to speak. But it caught my attention, in the dome, to see different figures, of saints, perhaps not so well known, but all of them with a curiosity: painted under the threshold formed by two columns, which reminds me of the old traditions of the master stonemasons ( traditions many of them, which later led to Freemasonry) and a reference to the extraordinary legend of Hiram, the Phoenician builder of the Temple of Solomon and its two basic pillars: the columns that received the names of Jakin and Boaz. But they are just sensations. Thank you very much for your comment and an affectionate greeting.
Indeed, the chapel's dome is a major visual treat. In that spot alone, you'll marvel at the exquisite creations made by the powerful hands of renowned artists. Take care and have an enjoyable week! 😊
