Thomas Cole prepared detailed explanatory texts for each painting in this four-part series. The following are Cole's own words about this painting:
"The dark cavern is emblematic of our earthly origin, and the mysterious Past. The Boat, composed of Figures of the Hours, images the thought, which we are borne on the hours down the Stream of Life. The Boat identifies the subject in each picture. The rosy light of the morning, the luxuriant flowers and plants, are emblems of the joyousness of early life. The close banks, and the limited scope of the scene, indicate the narrow experience of Childhood, and the nature of its pleasures and desires. The Egyptian Lotus in the foreground of the picture is symbolical of Human Life. Joyousness and wonder are the characteristic emotions of childhood."
A faithful addition to any space, and the first in this stirring series of four deeply symbolic works that form a treatise on the spiritual life, it makes a meaningful devotional gift and handsome holy art for home. Choose size.
