The Chapel of Our Lady of the Blood and the Rosary was built in 1696 and was later radically transformed thanks to the imagination of the artist David Tremlett.
Description
The Chapel of Our Lady of the Blood and the Rosary is the smallest place of worship among the terraced lawns of Rossa. On July 14, 2019, on the initiative of the RossArte Foundation, an artistic intervention was made on the external facades of 3 religious buildings: the chapel of San Carlo al Sabbione, the chapel of the Madonna del Sangue e del Rosario and the chapel of Santa Maria Maddalena al Calvario. An operation carried out by the Anglo-Swiss artist David Tremlett, characterized by the superimposition of shapes and colors on built architecture. Two-dimensional drawings that, once on the walls, become real sculptures. The RossArte foundation, with the help of private individuals and associations, has also intervened by redoing the traditional stone roof. The artist has chosen a very intense red, interspersed with gray and black geometries to give new life to the Chapel of Our Lady of the Blood and the Rosary
