A City on a Hill

A painted night scene: a city of stone houses and towers crowning a hill, windows glowing warm gold under a starfield, a small chapel spire with a four-pointed cross finial, and a tiny traveler with a lantern on the winding road below.

Movement III: the light shines out. A night city whose windows play the music, found by reading the painting itself, and a traveler carrying a lantern up the road. Press play on the series page.
