One of a collection of illustrations based on Irish mythology and folklore. A limited edition print of an original pencil drawing by Denise Nestor. The birds and butterflies are rendered in the same intricate texture detail that is synonymous with Denise's drawing style. Aengus Óg was a member of the Tuatha Dé Danann, an ancient tribe of gods and goddesses from Irish mythology. In time they became known as the Aos Sí (people of the sidhe), and in later folklore were known more familiarly as ‘the faeries’. Aengus Óg was the god of love and poetic inspiration and it was said that everywhere he went, four little birds hovered above his head. They were said to have been formed from his kisses and carried messages of love.
