Description
Jean-Michel Lengrand’s The Philosophical Dwelling (2003) depicts symbolic Masonic and alchemical tools on a chessboard, lit by candles, representing the quest for knowledge and enlightenment. The work blends tradition and surreal storytelling in Lengrand’s signature style.
Jean-Michel Lengrand wrote this text about the work:
This painting depicts a First Degree Lodge Table of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite.
All the symbolic elements are present in a still life against a nocturnal backdrop.
In the sky, the starry vault reproduces the map of the Caribbean islands, reminding us that the Temple is the mirror of the sky.
