THEME OF DEATH
From the author:
I made a still life of a stillborn calf. I chose the door of the Meggenhorn Chapel as the background. Religion can give comfort in times of death. The rosettes above the calf form a triangle, a reference to the triangular shape of the pictures in the ridge of the bridge.
In 1993, a fire broke out and almost the entire Chapel Bridge went up in flames. As a result, 2/3 of the paintings were destroyed. After restoration and renewal, 110 of the original 158 paintings are now back on the ridge of the bridge.
