In this image, a detail of an early 16th
century florentine painting (now in the museum in Avignon)
by the Master of the Capana Cassone,
the Chartres plan is rendered in three-dimensional perspective,
and surrounded
by various episodes from the Theseus legend. The hero himself
appears in the center as he vanquishes the Minotaur, here
rendered as a Centaur. This image is a copy of the dust-jacket
of Kern's invaluable and
encyclopedic work on mazes.
