On November 7, 1492, a meteorite fell in Ensisheim, a small town in Alsace, making
headlines of its time and even inspiring Dürer.
He created a double-sided oil painting: on the back, the meteor’s fall; on the front, Saint
Jerome in the desert.The tapestry began its journey at the Rizareios School in
Monodendri, Epirus, and reached The Ilisian (formerly Hilton).It’s a free interpretation of
Saint Jerome’s solitude — the thoughtful saint studying the sky, surrounded by rocks, a
lion, and a quiet mystery for the viewer: What detail reveals the fall of the meteorite?
For those who look upward, beyond the fabric of the world.
