Sinopsis:
The building known as the Goetheanum, near Basel, is the world centre for the Rudolf Steiner movement. It has nine huge stained glass windows, in which fascinating scenes have been carved, about the meaning of life and the path to spirituality.
In these windows, Rudolf Steiner provided visual guidance to the spiritual mysteries of underlying human existence, which speak more powerfully than words.
This book is a handy guide to understanding these scenes, for travellers and for students of Rudolf Steiner's teachings.
The most informed and insightful commentary written on these windows.
Beautiful graphics, showing the windows in their original colours and original triple-arched shape, which has a powerful artistic impact on the viewer.
These nine scenes are presented here in clear images, based on the coloured drawings used by the artist in charge in the 1920s.
Written by world-leading authority on Steiner's teachings, Dr. Adrian Anderson, who presents documents published by the Steiner Archives, and artworks from ancient cultures which provide keys to understanding the messages of these windows.
95 pages in nearly A4 size, with 22 coloured pages.
