Reply To: What is the symbolism of the “figs” used in Peace?

I see the figs 🍈 as more than just a lighthearted, comedic touch in the scene. They could symbolize the idea of prosperity that comes with peace ✌️. In the context of a post-war world, figs—especially in the context of the wedding 💒—might represent the promise of harmony and the abundance that comes with it. The “bridegroom’s fig” and “bride’s fig” could also highlight the roles of both characters in creating this abundance. After the chaos of war, the figs might be a symbol of how life can flourish again—how peace can bring renewal, just like the growth of fruit after a long period of struggle. It’s about building a new life full of growth and potential 🌱, both literally and figuratively.
