There is a wide-open window in the painting and a magnificent landscape outside of it. Three mountains stand afar, three rivers run somewhere far away, three pines stand on the sides. Three apples and three pears are put on the windowsill. The open window and the landscape far beyond symbolize the passing of the soul into the new better world, it’s birth into the Kingdom of Spirit. This is the transformation of grief into genuine love. Number three represents the key of the time: the past, which transforms into the present, and the present, for its part – into the future. There are two lamps on either side of the window, which symbolize the family, the light that goes from our ancestors, mother and father. The kerosene lamp means the direct male ancestor, and oil lamp - female.
