The lunar eclipse of March 23 at  London, where the British designer lived and acquired here famewas is prominently placed on the meridian.  Notice that the eclipse forms a Grand Cross with the TNPs Kronos-Hades and Cupido and the asteroids Daedalus, Asclepius and Requiem. Among other things Cupido rules buildings, sense of décor and artistry. Kronos is about experts or famous people while Requiem is death and  Hades is decline so that together we can see that  here it refers to death following a decline or deterioration in health (Asclepius) of a famous architect (Daedalus).  Daedalus is the mythological Greek architect first mentioned by Homer as the creator of a wide dancing-ground for Ariadne. He also created the Labyrinth on Crete, in which the Minotaur (part man, part bull) was kept.
