This print showcases a remarkable Celtic burial cairn, dating back to the 21st century BC. Located in Carrowkeel Cemetery, Ireland, this ancient structure stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the Celtic people. The image captures the essence of mystery and reverence surrounding death and burial rituals during that era. The cairn's imposing presence is enhanced by its vibrant color against the backdrop of County Sligo's breathtaking landscape. The doorway or entrance carved into the megalithic structure adds an intriguing element to this photograph. It invites us to ponder upon the significance of this portal - perhaps symbolizing a passage between life and afterlife for those laid to rest within.
