CROSSES AND STEMS OF STONE
       
Years ago walking on a path in the zone of Azzarino I acknowledged the frequency of religious testimonies, like capitals, tombstone, steles or crosses of stone, made to invoke a grace, to remember a difficult moment or an escaped danger. Knowing the history that every work brings by itself and within itself, I tried a deep respect and joy. Works of sculptors or simple stone-dressers disclose lived history but still current, worn by the time and smoothed by the wind, they have forward eternity.
SARTORI of ROVERE'- On the road that from Roverè goes to S.francesco in proximity of the Bazani region and just before Sartori we are at 979 meters of height on the sea level.

This 1888 Cross that reaches the height of almost three meters hands the writing:
Jesus my mercy, 300 days of indulgence. The symbols of the Passion are represented too.
