Tamar's Song of Solomon

The Song of Solomon contains 20 powerful illustrations printed in full color on artistic paper in Hebrew and English.

Artist's Notes: "The Song of Songs has been interpreted in numerous ways. The traditional commentary sees the text as a parable for God’s love for the Jewish people. Others treat it literally as a description of the love between a man and woman. I chose to emphasize the Jewish people’s connection to its land and to expand on the descriptions of the panoramas, the natural resources, and the seasons; and to focus on the flora and fauna of the Land of Israel. In this frame of mind, I began working on the illustrations."

The Song of Songs First Edition Price: $45.
The Song of Songs First Edition Price signed by the artist: $60.

It is also available in a Limited Collector's Edition of 50 copies, signed and numbered by the artist. Each one is silk-screened on Arches paper, using 20 to 30 color plates for each illustration.
Each book has a specially printed wooden box for storing.

The Song of Songs Limited Collector's Edition Price: $2,100.
