THE LIGHT OF LEGACY

Size Framed: 405 x 305mm
Medium: Oil on canvas

In this artwork, the artist who is an orthodox Jewess, portrays a pair of silver candlesticks, to represent spiritual articles from her religious lifestyle that give her light and inspiration. The gradient of the background has been used by the artist to symbolize the transition from the ordinary and weekday to the spiritual day of Shabbat, and rest that the lighting of the candles generates.
