Description

This style of hood is based on/inspired by a find in Skjold Harbor in Norway which dates to the 11th century. A hood is a great cover for the head and the shoulders from exposure to sun, cold temperatures and especially windy weather. In the medieval times a hood was often also combined with some kind of coif, hat, cap or a combination of coif and cap.

I printed this lovely midweight linen fabric by hand using a lioness stamp which I carved myself. This lioness roundel pattern is based on a 11th century middle eastern ceramic depicting a lioness. I initially cut this lioness stamp for Sir Brealthen de Raimes elevation at Gulf Wars 2019. The small decorative pattern is inspired by medieval artwork.
