Notes
"Depicting the Garden of Eden, Berg wondered what occurred in that sacred space before the arrival of Adam and Eve. Flora and fauna circle the tree of life, which stands peaceful and resolute in the center. The animals look forward, toward the view, anxiously and excitingly awaiting the arrival. 'I imagine that the animals joined our [Heavenly] Parents in welcoming each of Their children to the garden. I can see our Mother with Her arms outstretched like the many golden branches of the tree,' said Berg. 'What a joyous and epic beginning to this great early journey.'"
