Museum-quality reproduction of original painting, printed on archival paper, signed and numbered in a limited run of 50.
Noah's Ark, depicted as a 17th-century galleon, sits ready to welcome its passengers. The figures and animals are drawn from visual motifs found in medieval haggadot (Jewish Passover prayer books) and books of hours (Christian devotional texts). At the bottom, an Islamic Moroccan design adds another cultural layer.
The male figure in the top left and the female figure in the top right represent the dual male and female aspects of God. In Jewish tradition, God is beyond all attributes; nevertheless, both masculine and feminine qualities have been attributed to the divine presence. God is shown pointing toward the ark, beckoning all creatures to enter. Several figures blend human and animal forms, suggesting the inherent connection between all life.
The overall composition loosely resembles a page from the Talmud, a collection of Jewish teachings and opinions, with the central element surrounded by complementary pictorial details.
