Original artwork description:

The image is made mainly in cold, translucent colors, resembling more watercolor. Liubov Kuptsova has inspired with flowers again.
Irises have been popular since ancient times, as the description of irises is often found on frescoes of Ancient Egypt, Assyria and Babylon. Then they personified the strength and steadfastness of the power of the royal house and were called to inspire awe among their subjects. The meaning of the iris flower comes from its Greek name ἶρῐς (rainbow), which is associated with the ancient Greek goddess Irida. According to legend, being the patroness of the rainbow, Irida always went down to earth to convey the messages of the gods to people. It is interesting to know that the author of this name was Hippocrates himself.
