Michael Hiles Posted January 18, 2012 Share #9461 Posted January 18, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) My first thought was "Swift". By "Swift" I assume you mean Jonathan Swift, Dean of St. Pat's in Dublin. Sorry. Think further east and south. English not the first local language. Looks like it refers to some historical event, with the people on the right coming out of some dark netherworld and ascending to a more pleasant existence... 'heaven'? Maybe the church's take on some dreadful event like WWII, holocaust? Part of a memorial?---------------- Frans Good thought. I don't have a detailed explanation of the meaning, but I am sure you are getting closer. Here are clues - it was done in 1949, and it is part of a door.

Michael Hiles Posted January 19, 2012 Share #9464 Posted January 19, 2012 at the door of the baptisterium in Florence? Much closer - but still a little too far north. Hi There,Could this be Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome? Andre PhoBlog | De la photographie Precisely. Doors given in 1949 by Pius XII to the Papal Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, Rome. Great work - this is a little obscure. The Church is famous but the doors are a detail. André, to you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aremond Posted January 19, 2012 Share #9465 Posted January 19, 2012 Ok, it is my turn, then. It won't be too difficult I guess, but I like the place very much. M9 with summicron 35 ASPH.

Michael Geschlecht Posted January 21, 2012 Share #9478 Posted January 21, 2012 (edited) Hello Andreas, A lot of us think it is somewhere where a French affiliation is a part. Syria is the wrong direction from Turkey. That might indicate France itself. France? Maybe even Corsica?
