Christian symbol- Dolphin

Making our Mosaic's in Humanities class took time and effort, some of us didn't even get a chance to finish. I tried to take a symbol which I liked and that wasn't only a line like the fish symbol. I piked this symbol because I like animals and it seemed interesting. The dolphin symbolizes redemption. Ancient legends tell of the dolphin ferrying souls into afterlife. Dolphins in this capacity are pictures with the dead riding on their backs into the afterlife. If we where to make a mosaic for a church I would probably die. I really think they took allot of time in making their designs.
