Jelling Battle is inspired by the famous Jelling Stone in Denmark, a monument seen a fundamental to Danish identity and the formation of the Danish state. Taken from 'Side B' of the stone, the image depicts a stylised serpent attacking a lion; the print is overlaid over runic text to give extra layers to the image and create a sense of unity with the distant past.
The print is hand printed on fabric-based 250 gsm Somerset Velvet on a 19th Century Albion Press in 4 colours, printed from 4 different plates and signed and edition by the artist. Printed area: 12" x 12"; paper size approx twice as much again. For more information about the hand-printing process, please click here.
One of variable edition of 3.

Because of new tariffs, plus reports of parcels below certain values being destroyed in the US due to paperwork overloads, I regret that I cannot supply to the USA at present.
