Tree 

Peter Becker sketched this tree with delicate lines. The tree, in its stark beauty, is a potent symbol, deeply rooted in human consciousness. The image of the tree transcends time, echoing through various cultures. In ancient mythologies, trees were often seen as the axis mundi, connecting the earthly and the divine. Consider the Tree of Life, a motif that appears in numerous forms from the Norse Yggdrasil to the biblical tree in the Garden of Eden. Becker's tree stands alone, drawing our eyes upward, towards the heavens, evoking a sense of longing and spiritual yearning. It's a visual expression of the human soul's perennial quest for meaning, deeply embedded in our collective memory. Like an ancient ancestor whispering across the ages, it reminds us of our roots.
