 I thought I had a good idea but it did not work out.

For those who are not familar with the Christian religion and Leonardo da Vinci it is the face of the Madonna of the Rocks from the Louvre Museum in Paris, hence the Virgin for the Zodiac sign of Virgo. Arc de Triomphe is at the end of Champs Ëlysées - Elysian Fields, and hence Our Lady of the Fields for the title.

I am familiar with Leonardo da Vinci, and that particular painting as well. I was raised in a Christian denomination which regarded Christianity and Astrology as antithetical, so that is probably why I didn't connect Virgo with that particular Virgin.
