Tree Of Life - 500pc Jigsaw Puzzle by Puzzlelife

The painting is a study for a series of three mosaics created by Klimt from 1905-1911. The mosaics were created in the artist's Late Works period and depict swirling Trees of Life, a standing female figure, and an embracing couple. The Tree of Life is an important symbol in nearly every culture. With its branches reaching into the sky, and roots deep in the earth, it dwells in three worlds- a link between heaven, the earth, and the underworld, uniting above and below. It is both a feminine symbol, bearing sustenance, and a masculine, visibly phallic symbol- another union. 500 piece jigsaw puzzle.
