This area is preserved in its integrity and all its beauty, with stretches of conifer woods and pastures furrowed by paths and glades, where boulders of off-white limestone lie scattered, smoothed and shaped by water and wind.cSentiero del Silenzio, Porta della Memoriaampomulettohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03143425177410292853noreply@blogger.comBlogger14125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-338569214198117438.post-36314036642302576882011-06-23T07:52:00.000-07:002011-06-23T07:55:29.090-07:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The glade surrounding this composition is covered with huge whitish rocks, stones common to this area. The group of stones that make up the composition is different from the others: each stone, in fact, bears symbolically carved initials, in Memory of the innumerable soldiers who lost their Lives or who went missing during the Wars. <br />

The rocks are assembled so as to allow only one person through at a time, who will be turning towards the heart of the composition, virtually entering a maze, within which rises a square block of black granite with the word Peace carved out in it in 36 languages – surrounded by a forest of whitish boulders. An Iindisputable value, hidden by the anonymous whiteness of daily life, a possibility offered to all.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />

Helmets, similar to those worn by the two armies, stand in opposition to each other, symbolically placed to face the same directions as the armies did during the period of combat. The two formations of helmets stand in homage to the moment of battle, whose only outcome will be Death, symbolised by four skulls placed in the centre.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />

Only a few of them remain whole, immune to the destructive fury of the War. The missing parts are placed in the ground to signify that nothing of what was endured will be lost, at least as long as Remembrance does not fade in the Memories of those who can read the scene with emotion. </td><td class="tr-caption"> </td><td class="tr-caption"> </td></tr>

<i>The <b>“Pathway to Silence, Doorway to Memory”</b> is a proposal to increase the appreciation of an area of extraordinary historical and environmental interest, located on the Altopiano dei Sette Comuni in the high Valle Campomulo (near Campomuletto). <br />
This area is <b>preserved</b> in its integrity and all its beauty, with stretches of conifer woods and pastures furrowed by paths and glades, where boulders of off-white limestone lie scattered, smoothed and shaped by water and wind. <br />
<br />
The peace and tranquillity of the place cannot mask the tragedy of the </i> <i><b>Great War</b>, which ninety years ago spread death and destruction throughout the Altopiano. The attentive eye of the visitor can still espy, among the firs and little valleys, the signs of the War: emplacements, dug-outs, shelters, trenches, former graveyards… <b><br />
<br />
“Pathway to Silence, Doorway to Memory”</b> was inspired by the force that emanates from this place.</i>cSentiero del Silenzio, Porta della Memoriaampomulettohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03143425177410292853noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-338569214198117438.post-17014056822838218172011-06-22T08:19:00.000-07:002011-06-22T08:19:47.693-07:00WELLCOME!!!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGOIPNqSTY_uY5Rm91B8s6pKsMTVXVL82q6a7dRe9kzUkyOJ90eeVozMMe5X1PjrHxJMfuBaEMDJZrKfjo2VHl56YGPophKpmqPHdpKRWQhvC5MWgmS39vGTezPaOET0UcWDErds14sAub/s1600/22.05.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGOIPNqSTY_uY5Rm91B8s6pKsMTVXVL82q6a7dRe9kzUkyOJ90eeVozMMe5X1PjrHxJMfuBaEMDJZrKfjo2VHl56YGPophKpmqPHdpKRWQhvC5MWgmS39vGTezPaOET0UcWDErds14sAub/s400/22.05.jpg" width="400" /><b> </b></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
