Crocodile Priestess limited edition Print

This illustration shows a magical scene in the environment of the Nile River in Egypt with mythologically important figures for ancient Egyptian culture such as the crocodile, the ibis and the palm tree. The crocodile was said to be the god of water and could act as a symbol of pharaonic power and strength, whereas the ibis was believed to be the patron of writing and scribes. The priestess is intimately connected to these elements in total balance with nature and spirituality. The palm tree in the ancient Mediterranean world was called “the tree of the soul” and an important decorative element in their temples and palaces.
