The Pirate Trail of Inistioge

The Pirate Trail of Inistioge 2-ink

The Pirate Trail of Inistioge 2-ink, originally uploaded by Alé Mercado.

Image for the Pirate Trail of Inistioge. An initiative to raise awareness of the pirate past of this picturesque location. Some of the most famous pirates of the XVII century were from Inistioge or its surrounding parishes. Some of their descendants are still living in the area.

The image is part of a very limited series of 13 (two ink version) and 8 (one ink version) linocut printed in 120gsm paper

They are for sale here: 2-ink and 1-ink

    Cool post, awesome linocut. Pirates are so underrated, we forget pirates are people too. Argh!
