It is one of a series of three sets of nine lithographs entitled “Silent Witnesses”, that document seemingly ordinary or unseen architectural elements and return them to the consciousness of a community, acknowledging them as living “members” of that community. The selected architectural elements define the persona of each village, and have acted as silent witnesses to its history.
