Miniature Frescos in Hollows of Trees

I have heard a story one an old man who once brought a piece of a tree from the forest and tried to chop it for wood. Having split one billet into halves, he found a Crucifix, which he later saw in a dream, grown into the tree. The Crucifix asked the man to bring it to the place where he had found it. The old man built a roadside pole there and put the Crucifix on it.

The hollows of woods are healed by cleaning them, covering with antiseptics and plastering them afterwards. Apple-trees are whitened in spring to protect them from worms. The frescos consist of lime and sand, therefore the technique of frescos heal the hollows of trees.

The frescos, created in the hollows of trees, unite the Northern tradition of little plastic and the Southern tradition of a fresco, which by enriching each other heal the trees and the attitude of people.
