Subir Dey
The owl

2021

About the Item

"The owl, patron bird of Goddess Athena, has a history that goes beyond the common association with wisdom and knowledge. In ancient Egypt, owls were known to be keen-sighted hunters. It is believed that a magical inner light gave owls night vision. As the symbol of Athena, the owl was a protector. In Hindu mythology, the owl is considered to be the vehicle of Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth. This painting is a tempera on Napali handmade paper. The blue eyes and the beautiful expression make the painting unique."
