Masonic Altar Symbolism - Sacred Geometry and Enlightenment #164996 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white line drawing depicts a traditional Masonic altar featuring two Corinthian columns-Jachin (left, Earth) and Boaz (right, cosmos)-supporting an arch with the letter G (Geometry or God) at its apex. Centered below is an open book (Volume of Sacred Law) overlaid with the square and compasses, resting above a checkered black-and-white floor representing the duality of life. The base panels include symbolic motifs: a pyramid and a landscape scene, reinforcing themes of ascent and earthly stewardship.
