Sumer Is Icumen In | Art Print

Design

In this piece, The Saxon Storyteller has chosen to depict a cult classic. "The Wicker Man" is based off an effigy supposedly burned by Druids as sacrifice. The tale was made famous by the 1973 folk horror film, in which the inhabitants have abandoned their Christian faith in favour of Celtic paganism.

Available as a standalone print or as part of Matt's Folklore Print Series.

 

Material & Make

The artwork you will receive has been created locally and is printed using high quality inks and paper to maintain integrity and quality of colour and image.

Your print will arrive on 250gsm uncoated art board and should be handled with care. It’s preferable to only touch the edges and we recommend mounting these in a frame behind glass.

  

About The Artist

The Saxon Storyteller is an illustrator known for his incredible ability to capture the character and theme of artifacts and historical figures. Reminiscent of Saxon and Viking iconography, his subject matter ranges from members of the lore (such as Ragnar Lothbrok) to those of Tolkien (like Gandalf and other members of the Fellowship). You may also recognize his work as the key illustrator of the Nordic Mythology Podcast, where his images appear unique to each episode and its content. On Northern Fire, you will discover the artwork of Saxon Storyteller on clothing, prints, and pins.
