Abstract
Abstract:A biblical sign of the divine covenant (Gen. 9:12), the rainbow has conveyed symbolic meaning in the art of the Abrahamic religions for ages. The rainbow image as well as arched patterns and domelike structures alluding to a rainbow suggest the Heavens as God's abode and as a channel for divine communication. The present article surveys the textual sources and artistic interpretations of this symbolism.
