The Age of Innocence

ome may see in this artwork religious motives of Buddhism, Christianity and Judaism; some will see the icon from early renaissance; some will see here a time traveler or space traveler; some will see relations between father and son... And all will be true, this work has many layers. But for me, as a mother, I see the purest and the most innocent creation, and I ask myself how to preserve this innocence?
