This ketubah prominently features three trees representing the bride, groom, and the Divine presence in their life together. The ketubah text is calligraphed within the natural shape of the central tree. A serpent wraps around the central trunk seven times with the quote from Hosea engraved in gold letters on it, “I will betroth you to Me forever; and I will betroth you to Me with righteousness, with justice, with kindness and with mercy: and I will betroth you to Me with fidelity; and you will know the Lord.”  Jerusalem and the Temple Mount are seen in the background between the trees.

Gouache and ink on Arches paper. 22”x30”
