STONE OF THE HOLE (Cornish Legend)
Description:
This Unframed, Unmounted Watercolour is painted on 400g watercolour paper and is an impression of 'Stone of the Hole' Men - an - Tol in Penwith Moor, Cornwall UK. The Mên-an-Tol (Cornish for 'Stone of the Hole') consists of a holed stone 1.2m (4ft) across with a large round hole 51cm (20 in) in diameter, large enough for a grown person to crawl through. Either side of it are two upright stones, 1.3m (4½ft) high
Legend says if you pass a baby through the stone you protect them from Rickets, consumption and fever. passing through the hole was central to the healing process with importance being attached to the direction, the number of times (commonly 3 or 9) and the point on the lunar cycle.
It is 4,000 years old from the Bronze age and is known as a Portal to a safer future drawn from a timeless past. A Hag Stone, also known as an adder stone, is a stone that has a naturally occurring hole through it. Such stones were, and sometimes still are, believed to have magical properties. These supposedly include the ability to heal a snake bite, or see through the disguise of a witch or fairy by looking through the hole.
Includes a Certificate of Authenticity & Poem printed on coloured card.
