Symbolic value
The symbolic value of the palm tree is significant, as the palm branch represented victory, peace, triumph, and everlasting life. In some religions, the palm was considered sacred. Perhaps this is because the palm tree, particularly coconut varieties, can bear fruit for as long as 70 years. View canvas prints of this fascinating plant which has its own rich history. Enjoy scenes of palms waving in the wind, silhouetted against the coming night, providing shade and a tropical view, and more. There are patterns of palm trees as well as the more abstract palm canvas prints which let the imagination draw in the details. Palm tree paintings may help you remember an extra-special holiday or even your favorite scene from a movie.
The strong, silent palm has been an actor in thousands of movie scenes. For instance, it featured in the 1981 Mel Gibson film, Gallipoli, where the Australians and Turks were battling it out on the shore of the Dardanelles. Miami Vice (2006) shows Colin Farrell and Gong Li fighting on the beach amidst the waves. Point Break has a scene with Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze on Bells Beach in Australia among the palm trees. Beautiful scenery with beaches seems to almost always showcase palm trees at their best.
A nice palm tree canvas print is a durable way of adding beauty to your own wall. Whether your tastes are photographic, painting, or somewhere in the middle, a canvas print of a palm tree is a good option for giving any area a more tropical or beach oriented theme. A palm tree painting may be paired with several varieties of palm for contrast.
