The Celestial Steed

Caught fast in the chasm between night and day, The Celestial Steed is paused in step. Below the heraldic sun, lit by the moon of Galileo Galilei and gilded by the stars of Giotto, we see the pure architectural majesty of this magnificent mount. The silvered metallics of the armoured sabaton and glove are softened by carnations, a simple symbol of divine and earthy love under a cosmic sky. Known as ‘solsequeter’, daisies below open and close with the sun; a powerful sign of resurrection.
