Seen with the Unseen
Description
Seen with the Unseen by Rita Adams portrays a scene of departure and transformation against a backdrop of rosy skies and a tall orange ladder. Departing Beersheva in the Negev desert, Jacob embarks on a journey towards Padan-Aram, fraught with both peril and promise. In a departure from traditional symbols, birds, rather than angels, serve as messengers, symbolizing unseen forces guiding Jacob's travels. His departure is laden with significance; fleeing his brother Esau's wrath and fulfilling his father's directive to seek a suitable wife, Jacob stands at a pivotal turning point in his life. Adams' composition captures the tension between uncertainty and hope for the journey.Try it!
