"Pisces" is a 1907 watercolor by Lithuanian symbolist painter Mikalojus Konstantinas Ciurlionis. The painting, depicting the zodiac sign Pisces, utilizes symbolic imagery of the sea, stars, and fish to convey the mystical and spiritual qualities associated with this sign. The central circular shape, resembling a rising sun, embodies a sense of new beginnings and hope, while the delicate lines radiating outwards from it create a sense of cosmic energy. The fish, swimming beneath the sun, are symbolic of Pisces's intuitive and sensitive nature. Ciurlionis's use of soft, ethereal colors and a dreamlike atmosphere evokes a sense of otherworldly beauty and mystery, characteristic of his artistic style.
