ENQUIRE

Shetland has a large population of ravens, locally known as corbies and in spring an even larger population of lambs. Ravens being opportunistic feeders and will gather where ever there is the chance of food which is plentiful at lambing time and as such they have been heavily persecuted. Paradoxically they are also highly revered in Nordic culture and the raven flag flies proudly over the town hall in Lerwick. This print is not about heroes and villains but about something bigger than both raven or lamb.
