Description

Dala sheep are not traditional symbols of Sweden; horses are the original, commanding the vast majority of the attention, though pigs and roosters are fairly commonly encountered dala animals. But while they are not commonly carved and painted like a dalahäst, sheep are traditional farm animals in Sweden.

Named for the Swedish island and province from which they come, Gotland sheep are descended of Gute sheep, a landrace whose bloodlines date back to the vikings. Gotlands are dual purpose sheep, raised both for meat and for their long, curly, smoky black to silvery blue wool—wonderful for spinning by hand, as well as felting.

Giclée prints are printed on archival cotton rag. Inks are water based and free of Nickel, PFOS, PFOA and VOC’s, which are harmful to the environment and cause degradation of prints.

Prints are all matted; an 8×10 print comes in a mat to fit an 11×14 frame, an 11×14 matted print fits a 16×20 frame.
