Copr Cymru

In fitting with Erdigg Country House, Wales's history we tend to think that Wales' history is written in coal dust and steel, but in fact Wales became the first Industrial nation and the copper "Copr" industry was at its heart. The fabric of the communities and the landscape of wales was changed through its industrialisation. Here a copper bread pan sits with a pair of Victorian sheep shearing scissors. Oils and gesso on board in antique frame. 61 x 41 cm (77 x 62 cm including frame) Find this work at Ffin Y Parc Gallery, Llanrwst, Wales until August 30th 2014.
