Original artwork description:

Northern Ireland image, tradition holds that Saint Patrick, enslaved as a youth, was brought to this area and tended sheep herds on Slemish, and that during this time he found God. Slemish is the remains of the plug of an extinct volcano. Its distinctive appearance —its upper reaches are very steep and rugged, in contrast to the tidy fields on its lower westward-facing slopes and the relatively flat bogland to the east— causes it to dominate the landscape for miles around.
This watercolour has been hot pressed and comes with a white mount.

Materials used:

Winsor and Newton watercolours on Langton paper.
