Design para estamparia empapelaria com referência nos elementos arquitetônicos da Catedral São João Batista de Santa Cruz Do Sul (RS)

Abstract

The present work has as objective to create designs for stationary having as reference the architectonic elements of the Saint John Baptist Cathedral of Santa Cruz do Sul – RS. These designs were constructed from hand-crafted drawings and from pictures of this cathedral, which is considered to be the biggest religious temple built in neo-gothic style in the South America. Also, studies about issues concerning the foundation of the city of Santa Cruz do Sul and about the influence exerted by German immigrants on the city were deepened in this work. From all of these references, papers were printed with printings that refer to the cathedral’s details: the fachade with its pointy towers, the stained glass windows depicting biblical scenes and saints images, the glazed tiles of the high-altar, the decorative pictures of the walls and other architectonic elements.
