This serene woman with an ornament of grace on her head, sits quietly surveying the world amidst lovely flowers. It is a cool, refreshing scene resembling a garden with a gate to look through. Created with multiple layers and depths, it delights the eye with its beauty. Vintage brass adds to the sense of former days.
The scriptural reference for this piece is found in Proverbs 4.5-9 : “Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget or turn away from the words of my mouth. Do not forsake her and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you. Wisdom is the principle thing; therefore get wisdom and in all your getting get understanding. Exalt her, and she will promote you; she will bring you honor when you embrace her. She will place on your head an ornament of grace; a crown of glory she will deliver to you.”
