Image of Long Meg & Her Daughters (Stone Circle) by amd

A linocut print based on the – probably modern, and as yet unaccounted for -folklore that if you walk around the stones of Long Meg and her Daughters (once, perhaps twice) and then put your ear to Meg, she will whisper... or perhaps worse things will happen.

The rhyme – my own summary based the wikipedia version of the tale – reads: “Count the stones as ‘round you walk / listen to Meg and she will talk”

Currently hanging to dry before they go up for sale.
