In order to investigate the important questions raised by Esben Thomsen on Jaiku, join us for a trip to Fredensborg Palace.
The quest is this:
Name the renaissance principle, that meant that buildings were left with visible defects/flaws, because only God is perfect, and perfection in art and architecture would challenge God's perfection.
We're not even sure this principle exists, but at least one of the floors in Fredensborg Palace is rumoured to have this kind of imperfection.
Fredensborg Palace certainly isn't renaissance, so it's possible that the principle is newer.
Details:
It's quite a ride to Fredensborg, so we'll leave from Central Station at around 11am on saturday the 25th. The Palace is open from 1pm to 5pm, guided tours start every 15 minuttes.
