Description
A digital image of two men, one with a rose, climbing a ladder, racing to the top of a building where a woman stands, arms outstretched ready and waiting to be loved. The Race for Love symbolizes the heights people will go to find love and the desire within every woman to be pursued. This image makes a great greeting card for someone in love; marriage, anniversary, valentines, special ocassion.
I love this image! While visiting Greece, specifically the island of Santorini, I came across this building. As I gazed up into the sky, my eye caught this brilliant artwork. Two men racing to the top of the building, pursuing love! The woman awaits the winner, embracing the moment. I especially enjoyed seeing one man empty handed, racing to the top, the goal of simply winning. While the other guy demonstrated the race didn't simply call out to the fastest but to the lover, symbolic of the rose in his hand.
