Beschreibung
The symbolism in The Harvest Shaman is direct and deliberate. The harvest moon dominates the composition as the painting’s most prominent symbol. The shaman stands in a field from which he has gathered his crop, his harvest symbolically represented by the offerings he raises in both hands. At the center of the shaman’s body, another plant is depicted, suggesting an inner or spiritual source of growth. The entire scene unfolds beneath a star-filled sky, reinforcing the painting’s connection to cycles, nature, and the cosmos.
