GODDESS of Prosperity: Vintage Queen Earth Mother, Goddess authentic Art, Good Luck, Cycle of Life

An art piece with a wise & positive message that easily integrates into a wide authentic variety of interior styles, from urban to country, contemporary, mid-century, and mélange (mix) to traditional.

With a great appreciation for antique Asian art and a reverence for various interpretations of energy forces in nature, I integrated both vintage Chinese and Japanese influences.

Since Asian art has been the language of symbols, you'll see references to "prosperity" in all its forms. The Goddess is surrounded by a multitude of butterflies energetically encircling her, indicating long life, beauty, elegance, and an undying bond between lovers. A canopy of spiraling vines of amethyst & pearl-white blossoms transcend from heaven, tendrils reaching out to commingle with the yellow chrysanthemums blooming below.

Wisteria, known to live for over 100 years, offers a symbolic representation of endurance and longevity along with fertility, love, creative expansion, immortality, patience, exploration, the releasing of burdens, and victory over hardships. Mums denote intellectual accomplishment, with cleansing qualities, curing illness, and provides longevity. Prosperity can mean a lot of things to many people, but without your health and mental agility, no matter how much money or possessions you have, you won't be able to enjoy them. Lastly, if you can find them, a few more depictions of abundance and references to the cycle of life.
