Crete Island Babe Limited Edition Print

This ancient symbolic representation of the papyrus flower was found similar in the palace of Knossos on the island of Crete. It is not certain why the Minoan civilization represented papyrus flowers in their frescoes, but their possible relationship with Egypt and travels to these lands of the Nile are suspected. Papyrus stem is used to represent growth, vigour and the balanced existence with nature. This modern Crete Island Creature is flowing between the papyrus flowers remembering the rich mythology of her island and feeling the energy of the ancient past that can inspire us every day. The mixture of ancient nostalgia and modernity is possible.
