Thesis Abstract



Abstract

This research project aims to investigate the symbolism of animals in art across various cultures throughout history. Animals have been depicted in art for millennia, often carrying rich symbolic meanings that vary significantly from one culture to another. This study seeks to analyze how different cultures represent animals in their artistic traditions, exploring the underlying meanings, cultural contexts, and symbolic associations attributed to various animal motifs. By examining a diverse range of artworks from different time periods and geographical regions, this research will shed light on the universal and culture-specific symbolism of animals in art, offering insights into the ways in which humans have interpreted and depicted the natural world through artistic expression.
