Cernunnos Altar Cloth

I hand printed these altar cloths with a hand carved circular Cernunnos stamp and a Stag corner piece stamp on my etching press.  The last photo in the slideshow gives an overview of the creative process.  The altar cloth is double sided: shiny moss green coloured cloth with black print and moss green cotton with black print. This way you get two altar cloths in one.   The cloth has been through many evolutions of colour though: it was originally on brown taffeta as can be seen on the second to last photo.

This altar cloth was inspired by the Celtic god Cernunnos. One of the most well-known images of the god was found on the Gundestrup Cauldron (a Gaulish artifact dating from the European Iron Age). He belongs to the group of gods known as Horned Gods.
