Sundial
The Steno and Edda Avian
family house
Photo n° 4 |
The image is dominated
by the figure of a cupid (suspended in a clear sky, painted
using the “tromp l’oeil” effect) busy playing his flute. The
notes are of a Furlan popular song dedicated to the sun.
The sun depicted on this
sundial is characterised by the wink painted by the author,
making it thus more entertaining, with the greeting of good
tidings to everyone who looks at the sundial. |
