Eostre: Goddess of The Dawn Original Painting
Eostre: Goddess of The Dawn Original Painting
Story Behind The Art
9x12 Original gouache, ink, and gold foil painting
Eostre, the Western Germanic goddess of dawn and spring, brings light, hope, and renewal with her arrival. The inspiration behind Easter traditions, she represents the transition from winter’s stillness to the vibrant life of summer. This ethereal piece was created in honor of the Year of the Rabbit (2023), symbolizing rebirth and the magic of the changing seasons.
Let this painting be a daily reminder that new beginnings are always within reach, and hope is never far away.
This painting features gold foil wisps moving between the bunnies.
“Esotre seems therefore to have been the divinity of the radiant dawn, of upspringing light, a spectacle that brings joy and blessing, whose meaning could be easily adapted by the resurrection-day of the Christian's God." - Jacob Grimm, of the Two Brothers Grimm
FRAME NOT INCLUDED
Care
To ensure the longevity of your piece please frame right away. Natural light and exposure to air or water are the enemy of artwork. A glass frame (as opposed to plastic) is always preferred. Choose a spot on the wall out of direct sunlight. For original artworks I always suggest having them framed by a professional framer for a sealed back that further portects your artwork.
