Arawn, Welsh King of the Otherworld | Fine Art Print

Design

A story from the first branch of “Y Mabinogion” features a character who calls himself Arawn, King of the Otherworld. The tale begins with a mortal prince named Pwyll. In their initial meeting, Pwyll comes across Arawn's magical red eared hounds and steals his quarry, leading him to agree to swap places places and kill his rival in the Otherworld. It’s a fascinating tale worth knowing.

Material & Make
We have chosen to recreate this design as a fine art Giclée print to maintain the best quality of colour reproduction and the results are really outstanding.

The artwork is printed on Hahnemühle German Etching paper. 

As these are archival quality fine art prints please handle them with care, preferably only touching the edges and we recommend mounting them in a frame behind glass.
