This coloured engraving titled "Sacred Fig, 1833-39" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the exquisite work of the French School. The print is part of a private collection and was originally published in a renowned natural history dictionary by Felix Edouard Guerin-Meneville. The artwork beautifully depicts the Sacred Fig, also known as Pipal or Buddhabaum, with remarkable attention to detail. The intricate lines and vibrant colors bring this botanical illustration to life, capturing the essence of this sacred tree. The Sacred Fig holds great significance in various cultures and religions around the world. With its elegant branches and heart-shaped leaves, it symbolizes enlightenment and spiritual awakening.
