Description
The legendary phoenix inspired this watercolor painting. The phoenix, or firebird, is a mythic, long-lived bird that cyclically dies and is then reborn. A solar symbol, the phoenix perishes in flame, arising reborn from the ashes of its former self.
The phoenix was adopted as a symbol in early Christianity, and represented renewal in general terms as well as metempsychosis, consecration and resurrection.
