Bring a touch of ancient magic into your space with this captivating Green Man artwork. Rooted in Druidic folklore, the Green Man is a symbol of nature’s eternal cycle of growth, death, and rebirth — a guardian of the forests and a spirit of the wild.

In this piece, his face emerges organically from a lush mosaic of hand-crafted green leaves, punctuated by small clusters of berries. The background shimmers with gold leaf, offering a radiant contrast that illuminates the natural tones. The work is set in a replica I have created of an antique, ornate gilded frame that I found on my recent visit to Chester in UK, adding a sense of timeless reverence to the figure.

Perfect for anyone drawn to the mysteries of the natural world, ancient lore, or simply seeking a powerful, symbolic piece for their home.

  • Dimensions: 24cm x 24cm 

Embrace the spirit of the wild and invite the wisdom of the old forests into your life.
