This soft pastel was part of the 2008 Smithsonian Institute's "Between Fences" Exhibition. "The Mull of Galloway Cow" from the "Scotland Series" is a soft pastel work done on 12 x 15" 100% acid free Fredrick's art Canvas and is the newest work added to the artist's new Scotland series. Scotland normally conjure up an image of mountains, lochs and wild landscape where the mighty stag is king, but the Mull of Galloway is different. The most southerly point in Scotland and probably the least known, the Mull of Galloway has no mountains and no huge lochs and the royal animal in this part of Scotland is the cow. Nevertheless this is an enchanting area of Scotland and a grand area for the landscape photographer and painter, The piece of land on the left of the map is known as the Rhins of Galloway and is twenty miles long from north to south and at it's southerly end is the Mull of Galloway. Stranraer is the areas largest town and is also the ferry port for Belfast. There is also a ferry for Larne in Northern Ireland at Cairnryan just north of the town. On the west coast of the South Rhins there are many lovely spots including Port Logan, Ardwell Bay and Portpatrick great holiday spots for the family, with beaches which are safe for the children.The Rhins of Galloway are first mentioned in the history books in 82AD when Julias Agricola the Roman general was in Galloway and thinking of invading Ireland. Like most other areas in Scotland the history, the myths and the legends make great reading. The artist enjoyed this scene and many other scenes during her last trip to Scotland. This work is matted with outside measurements of 15 x 19" and is framed. It includes a EBSQ Certificate of Authenticity.
