The Skelligs by Moonlight by James Sparshatt. 34 x 24" Framed Archival Print
By James Sparshatt
Located in Coltishall, GB
The Skellig Islands are off the coast of Kerry in Ireland. Once the home of reclusive monks they have gained notoriety recently as a retreat for Luke Skywalker… Lit by moon light reflected off the Atlantic Ocean swell they portray a calm at odds with the often stormy seas that batter them..
James Sparshatt’s black and white landscapes have an ethereal beauty. They are moments when the natural form of topography is given magic by the transient touch of the elements.
The work is also available as a smaller archival giclee print and as a collectors edition Palladium Platinum print.
