Discover the geometry, symbolism and architectural order of the South Rose Window of Chartres Cathedral.
This carefully drawn architectural study reveals the radial divisions, repeating circles and geometric relationships that give the window its extraordinary sense of balance and movement. Through the language of geometry, the medieval builders transformed stone and glass into an ordered composition filled with light.
The Latin inscription In Principio Erat Verbum — In the beginning was the Word — connects the window's visual language with its deeper Christian symbolism.
Printed on substantial card stock, this Heritage Card is designed to be collected, displayed or framed.
A small study in architecture, geometry & heritage.
Collect them all as the Architectural Heritage Collection continues to grow.
