Eitthvad Sudur a Bogin | Kristjana S Williams

Eitthvad Sudur a Bogin, a limited edition giclee print by artist Kristjana S Williams.

The story behind the artwork:

A fantastical hot air balloon print in a circular shape, with colourful birds and a grumpy moose as passengers. The mouse on its dove is getting a free ride. This modern art print borrows its name from a common Icelandic nursery rhyme, with a bit of artistic licence:

In Icelandic:

Afi minn for a honum Raud Eitthvad sudur a baei.

Ad saekja baedi sykur og braudSitt af hvoru tagi.

A loose english translation:

My grandfather took his red horse

Travelling to one of the farms down south.Getting both sugar and breada little bit of both.
