Hi all
This work was carried out in prefabricated concrete by a specialized company. In four blocks was transported from the laboratory to the square with a TIR. Of course it was expected a drain for the water, and the gnomon is designed to resist vandals and at the same time not to be dangerous. Savian oversaw the development of the analytical part gnomonics because the polar axis does not match the radius of the sphere. This is to my need to have to keep the shadows inside the dome even in winter. When can I trace midday of the city, I love it and can not find obsolete.
I added some pictures in the Sundial Atlas to illustrate the creation.
Ciao

The city-direction labels are a nice touch: an old tradition that seems to have fallen into disuse. I hope you can tell us how the concrete (?) bowl was constructed.

Hello Fabio,

Marvelous public sundial! How did you construct the concrete bowl, and mark the lines so straight? I imagine it has a drain for water.

Hi all
this is my work in 2006, created for the city of Borgo San Dalmazzo (CN) Italy. The development of the project saw the collaboration of Fabio Savian.
I do not know if it falls between the sundials you are looking for.

Hi all,

I am working to an article about the Art in dialling and I would like to collect high resolution images of sundial made by artists or also artistic sundials. I know that not only Italy is the land of art so I would ask if there are some dial made by an artist ouside the Alps, or some artistic sundial to include as picture in my article. For example I know the famous Dalì sundial, the sundials made by Henry Moore, the dial made by Cocteau. There is some other dial of that kind?
