A design
combining some of the most important symbols
of the Rastafarian religion: Africa (representing the
Promised Land), the Lion of Judah (symbol
of Christ), the Star of David (two
interlocking triangles, akin to the
interlocking yin and yang), and Jamaica
(here shown positioned over Ethiopia on
the Horn of Africa). The images are
linked by the arc of the rainbow, symbol
of hope and of Jah (God’s) promise
to humankind, never to utterly destroy
humanity.
Prints
available (maximum size A4). Please contact me for further
