Hergiswald

8.8.13

We visited this church built in 1654, on a little road trip to Kanton Luzern. The 324 naive baroque ceiling paintings are emblems of motives and sayings of the time. The whole thing reminds us of Tarot, while being very different.The countryside folk style creates a much more powerful feeling and atmosphere than the richer churches of the day.
Photographed August 2013, in Hergiswald, Switzerland.
