    History

    Research

    Gemäss dem Künstler wurden zwei Pole dargestellt, der himmlische und der irdische. Im Erdbereich weisen Disteln auf das Leiden des irdischen Lebens hin, das leere Kreuz vor grünem Hintergrund symbolisiert das Ende des Leidens, das Christus vorgelebt hat. Oben symbolisiert die nach aufwärts strebende Taube den Bereich des Geistlichen und der Auferstehung.
