ope and reality. Later, the trip with James, Cam, and Mr. Ramsay makes the Lighthouse a symbol of healing. It also stands for the memory of Mrs. Ramsay, Prue, and Andrew. 

Lily Briscoe’s Painting: Lily Briscoe’s painting is a symbol of art and vision. She struggles because Charles Tansley says, 

“Women can’t paint, women can’t write.” 

She doubts herself. But she keeps painting. She tries to capture Mrs. Ramsay and James in the garden of the summer house. At the end, she completes it. She says, 

“I have had my vision.” 

Her painting becomes a symbol of artistic victory and memory.

The Dinner Party: Mrs. Ramsay’s dinner party is also symbolic. She brings together family and guests. Mr. Ramsay, James, Cam, Prue, Andrew, Nancy, Roger, Jasper, Rose, Lily Briscoe, William Bankes, Charles Tansley, Augustus Carmichael, Paul Rayley, and Minta Doyle. The meal becomes a symbol of unity, love, and human connection, even if brief.

The Lighthouse, Lily’s painting, and the dinner party are key symbols. They show dream, memory, art, and unity. These symbols connect Mr. Ramsay, Mrs. Ramsay, James, Cam, and all others in the summer house and the final journey.
