The painting titled 'Rainbow in the sky, a sign of Covenant between God and Earth' can be appreciated as a Religious painting that captures the divine promise following the biblical flood. Crafted in a Naïve art (primitivism) style, it emphasizes simplicity and vivid symbolism. The vibrant oil paints vividly depict the rainbow arching over a serene landscape, symbolizing God's covenant with humanity. Its composition, possibly created with Gouache on paper, evokes a spiritual reassurance reminiscent of Kiddush levana rituals, where the sky’s sign signifies divine promises.
