Noah's Ark for just $49.95 Digital Reproduction *Unframed 12.6" x 15.0" 32.0 x 38.0 cm Noah’s Ark is perhaps the most well known story in the Bible. Now Ellen Miller Braun has taken this beloved tale and designed a whimsically colorful display of Noah, his Ark and the animals- for both young and old alike to adore. Enjoy the scene of the peace loving dove with the rainbow cascading color over the ark. Noah and his cast of creatures large and small soar, riding high on the water spout of two frolicking whales.In Ellen’s lively rendition, the Torah Portion, Noah, Genesis: 6-12, is repeated seven times. As we all know, the animals boarded the ark two by two; one male and one female of each “kind.” However, G-d commanded Noah to bring seven males and seven females each from the “clean” or “kosher” animals, Ellen’s seven repetitions of the portion represents these sets of seven "clean" animals saved from the flood. These repetitions also symbolize the seven Noahide laws that were established after the flood. This exquisite micro calligraphy creation is a delight for children and the child in each of us- keeping this story close to our hearts and the important message that comes with it.
