"Goddess," a 24x18 inch photograph of a bearded iris on canvas was taken in the gardens at Effingham Manor & Winery in Nokesville.  The Greek Goddess, Iris, was associated with this flower.  The stunning colors and intricate structure of the iris are a visual representation of her wisdom and beauty. The goddess was the link between the gods and humankind, and her symbolic flower continues to create a connection between the viewer and nature. The piece would be the perfect addition to any nature lover's collection.
