奥特朗托大教堂的生命树镶嵌巨作，全欧洲无出其右,约16米长。
帕西诺，狄，波纳奎达所作的生命之树(约1310年)，描绘耶稣受+字架钉刑，隐含生与死的意涵。
许多秘教皆运用生命树意象，象征宇宙同出一源。
生命树是常见的象征，许多宗教均认可其意涵，如印度教经文以菩提树象征无垠的宇宙；宣扬犹太教神秘观点的卡巴拉教也曾提及圣树，象征生命、智慧与天地创造；古埃及的圣树是小无花果树；北欧神话有白蜡树，是世界之树：佛教徒尊崇菩提树；玛雅的吉贝树张开枝叶，撑起了整片天空。
The tree of life is a fundamental archetype in many of the world's mythologies, religious, and philosophical traditions. It is closely related to the concept of the sacred tree.
The tree of knowledge, connecting to heaven and the underworld, and the tree of life, connecting all forms of creation, are both forms of the world tree or cosmic tree, and are portrayed in various religions and philosophies as the same tree.
