The mysterious Picts left behind their enigmatic patterns in these carved monuments

a jolly image

representing the trinity

and they represent not only him but the sky in which the sun rests

while remaining true to the spectacular original

Pictish Drinking Horseman Tattoo Design claddagh The mysterious Picts left behindA Pictish horseman drinking while riding.. a carving found on the 8th c Bullion Stone from Angus, Scotland, a jolly image. This image is unique among the Pictish stones, depicting a bald, bearded man on a weary horse, carrying a shield, and drinking from a huge horn with a bird's head terminal. To give the tattoo a base I added a section of Pictish key patterning for the horse to climb up.
