Letters from the Landscape
It was a windy day with the light rapidly changing, cloud shadows moving across the landscape. I waited for the right moment and caught this break throwing selective light across the middle ground, picking out the cottage, the road, the dry stone walls. Everything else stayed muted.
The Black Valley was the last place in Ireland to receive electricity, which didn't arrive until 1976. The narrow road draws you in past old field boundaries, grass growing up the middle of it, and the scattered trees around the ruin give it scale. Then the mountain just rises straight up behind.

Yes. A framed size is the whole frame, edge to edge: 3 inches bigger each way than the print inside it. An unframed size is the sheet of paper, including the white border where I sign and title each print by hand. Canvas and Floating Panel sizes are the face of the piece.

Fantastic image. So evocative of the by roads of Ireland. Thank you.
We visited Ireland and fell in love with the Black Valley photo which depicted the beautiful countryside. It’s a wonderful addition for our collection of countries we have visited.
Finding Peter Cox’s photography gallery was an unexpected experience while on a recent cruise. His gallery was welcoming and the images were beautiful captures of nature’s glory. I fell in love with The Black Valley, Co. Kerry, on first sight. I am so delighted with the purchase experience. Peter was willing to hold shipping until I returned from my cruise. The print arrived in excellent condition but with no excess of packaging. Unwrapping it was a joy and it brought back memories of visiting his gallery. The print is mounted on my family room wall where I can see it every day for long periods of time. In my mind I have walked down the road in front of the little cottage and wondered just who might have lived there, what their life was like and how long has it been since it was occupied? It’s not a passive image, but rather one that invites you in to explore, wander and wonder. I absolutely love everything about it and am so glad I wandered into his gallery on my one day in Kinsale.
Every time we look at our new picture we visit Ireland all over again. Love it
