St. Patrick's Day 2021

Google Dooles 16.03.2021 13:02  Date: March 17, 2021 Today’s Doodle, illustrated by Dublin-based guest artist , honors a beloved Irish holiday celebrated worldwide: St. Patrick’s Day. Today’s Doodle artwork features symbols that represent Ireland's diverse geography, architecture, and history. The first icon signifies the country’s verdant mountains, forests, and coastal lighthouses, many of which stand near popular walking and swimming sites. The imagery in the first "o" is a nod to the hands and heart of the legendary Claddagh ring, a symbol of love, loyalty, and friendship. The second "o" incorporates a vase holding Irish wildflowers—spring squill and crocuses—as well as a three-leafed clover, an iconic state emblem of Ireland that represents faith, hope, and love. A depiction of the numerous rivers that run through many Irish towns and cities replaces the “g” as the “l” stands for Ireland’s natural woodlands, much of which are being restored thanks to new state reforestation initiatives. Finally, the "e" is replaced by a Celtic knot, a symbol of Irish hope in the infinite interconnectedness of humanity. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
