- the Ariadne-Beatrice-Mary room -

image of the room

The second choice room in the sequence presents the visitor with three words to choose from, the names of three women with significance to the narrative: Mary, the mother of Christ, Beatrice, Dante's love, and Ariadne, King Minoos' daughter who helped Theseus find his way out of the labyrinth.

As with the first choice room, the selection of words is related to the rooms that follow. Thus, selecting "Ariadne" will help us proceed further and into the woodcut room of the "Apocalyptic Woman". The selection of the other two words will lead us to different rooms which bypass the woodcut room.
