135.00 inc. vat

Step back into prehistoric Ireland with this evocative oil painting of the Uragh Stone Circle. Set against the rugged, verdant slopes of the Beara Peninsula, this piece highlights the dramatic standing stones that have overlooked the valley for millennia. A powerful tribute to the ancient spirit of the West Cork and Kerry border.

Description

An Ancient Sentinel in the Glen Uragh Stone Circle is legendary for its breathtaking location between two lakes and its exceptionally large entrance stone. This painting focuses on the raw, megalithic presence of the site, where the weathered gray stone meets the vibrant, wild greens of the Gleninchaquin landscape.

Artistic Details:

  • Textured Stonework: The artist uses a thick, impasto technique to render the lichen-covered surfaces of the stones, giving them a tactile, ancient quality.

  • Landscape Depth: The lush green valley floor leads the eye toward the looming, textured mountains in the background, capturing the isolated and sacred feel of the site.

  • Atmospheric Light: A soft, diffused sky hangs over the glen, highlighting the monumental scale of the primary standing stone against the water’s edge.

This work is an ideal centerpiece for those drawn to archaeology, Celtic history, or the deep, quiet energy of Ireland’s prehistoric landscapes.
