During their travels around the world over the years, Christian and Sara have been able to marvel at amazing examples of art, architecture, culture and heritage. Upon arriving in Rome, in what would end up being an engagement trip, Sara spotted images of bees hidden in the artwork throughout the city. These were bees designed by renaissance master Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Sara spotted Bernini bees on fountains and sculptures, carved into marble and etched into wood. Bees have also played a prominent role in ancient cultures: Cleopatra was Ruler of Upper and Lower Egypt, her symbol was the sedge and bee and Virgil once wrote "Some say that unto bees a share is given of the Divine Intelligence." The bee as an image remained with Christian and Sara and hopefully it remains with you.
