Pomegranate


Large

Persephone is the Greek goddess of the underworld, to which she had bound herself by eating pomegranate seeds. She is also symbolic of winter. Read here to learn more about her.

This collage uses Pomegranate 1 to make the spirals and a portion of Pomegranate 3 to make the mosaic. I assembled it using MS Paint, MS Photo Editor, and MS PowerPoint.

TelZodo received five out of five stars from apidi, who writes on Manybooks, "Read this book. Do read this book," and goes on to give an excellent summary and examination of the series thus far.
