Synopsis

Emer is the wife of Cuchulain (Setanta), an Irish mythological hero. He wooed her by trading cryptic riddles with her. Emer would accept Cuchulain as a husband, but only when his deeds justified it. Because her father was opposed to the match, Cuchulain had to go through many trials.

I was comissioned to do this print by Sheilagh and Bernard from Setanta Wines. The print is on the label for Chardonnay. The image is Copyright Setanta Wines.
