Description
“Under bare Benbulben’s head…”
In this powerful landscape study, Sheba Jones Dillon tackles the most famous silhouette in the West of Ireland. Benbulben is more than just a mountain; it is a landmark of the soul, a place of ancient legends, and the eternal backdrop to the life and work of W.B. Yeats.
Using a combination of bold, structural brushwork and soft, atmospheric washes, Sheba recreates the unique “ribbed” texture of the mountain’s limestone cliffs. The palette is quintessentially Irish—layering moss, emerald, and deep forest greens against a sky that suggests the restless energy of the nearby Atlantic. The painting captures the mountain’s duality: its unwavering, ancient presence and the ever-changing light that dances across its plateaus.
This print serves as a majestic focal point for any room, bringing the scale, history, and rugged beauty of “Yeats Country” into your home. It is an essential piece for Sligo natives, hikers, and lovers of the Wild Atlantic Way.
