bote jeghe

Art is one of the multiple manifestations of Creation and its myths. In every society, it emerges in the form of symbols and motifs. These motifs are not just decorative but convey higher meanings, therefore the symbols related to them are among the most varied symbolism. This motif is among the symbols related to Iranian beliefs. Since ancient time, this motif has undergone different changes towards its perfection and beauty to finally become what we know today as Bote Jeghe.

Many commentators have written about this motif’s relation with sacred trees or symbolic motifs of life, fire, tree of life, crown, etc. It is obvious that this motif has changed so much and somehow permeated through the global art.
