This painting is about olive trees. These trees can live up to 2,000 years, meaning that some of them have lived through events that seem unfathomable to us. Their oil has been used for sacred ordinances and rituals. The olive tree is a symbol of peace, perseverance, and the victory of life over death, and its gnarled, twisted trunks are a testament to their ability to withstand adversity.
