ðð®ð² King Orry †Link in bio for original art & prints (Traditionary Ballad Art). ð®ð²ð Reposted from @culturevannin King Orry, king of the Island. The most beautiful image we know of the great legendary figure of #manx #norse history, #KingOrry, newly created by @beth_louella_art. A 500-year-old song, the oldest piece of writing in #manx tells us that he arrived at the #Lhen & replied to the question of where he came from by pointing to the Milk Way. It has been know as the Raad Mooar Ree #Gorree in #ManxGaelic ever since. This is one of 5 illustrations of the #TraditionaryBallad created by #BethLouella for her #treisht2020 project. They are being released daily this week in the run-in to #TynwaldDay. #KingOrry #GodredCrovan #NorseKing #Viking #VikingKing #vikings #manxhistory #manxviking #isleofmanhistory - #regrann (at Isle of Man) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCGQlVYp364/?igshid=1oeb1amgn6fuv
