With its compound leaves and clusters of red berries, the sorb tree is rich in folk symbolism. Grasset’s rendering balances botanical clarity with stylized geometry, creating a rhythmic, vertical ornament. The lower panel suggests applications for architecture or print — stately, almost heraldic in its composition.
The sorb is linked in mythology to protection and resilience — themes echoed in this strong yet elegant design.
