This is one of the about 30 works in different sizes, which were exhibited around Europe in 1977-1978, under the title “religious art”. We see in it a tree holding broken triangles, which reminds us of the broken tables of the covenant and of a broken Magen David. The tree reminds us of the Tree of Life.
