on your wall
The Rock of Cashel, Tipperary
Prints are made to order, so I can't take one back just because you've changed your mind, but if it arrives damaged or isn't what you ordered, I'll replace it at no cost. You can swap it within 30 days, though you'd cover the return postage.
I must have driven past the Rock of Cashel dozens of times over the years. Always glancing up from the N8, always thinking I'd come back properly. This was the evening I finally did.
The sun was low in the west, throwing warm light directly onto the stone walls and the round tower. Partly cloudy sky, which is exactly what you want. Enough cloud to catch colour, enough gaps to let the light through. The Galtee Mountains were disappearing into a band of haze along the ridge, and the whole Tipperary countryside was rolling away flat and green to the horizon.
What made this photograph was the boundary wall. From ground level you barely notice it, but from above it becomes the whole composition. One long, unbroken curve tracing the contours of the limestone hill, holding the cathedral ruins, the round tower, Cormac's Chapel, the graveyard with its carved Celtic crosses, all within its sweep. The seat of the high kings of Munster before the Church took it over in the 12th century.
The scaffolding on Cormac's Chapel is part of a major OPW conservation project that began in 2009 to preserve Ireland's earliest surviving wall frescoes, dating from the 1100s. Practically medieval itself at this stage! I'm glad I finally stopped driving past.
Shipping is free once your order passes a threshold that depends on where it's going:
- Ireland: free over €75, otherwise €9
- UK and Europe: free over €150, otherwise €20
- US and Canada: free over €250, otherwise €35
- Rest of the world: a flat €100, whatever the order value
Your exact shipping cost is specific to your location and is shown to you before you finalize checkout.
We produce all our prints to order, so you can be sure you're getting the best quality work to hang on your wall. As a result, in busy times it can take a while to process the orders. In the worst case, which is generally during the peak months of July-September, it can take 4-6 weeks to receive large framed prints. Large canvases generally take 2-3 weeks. Unframed prints are generally also 2-3 weeks at worst.
We aim to get prints out as quickly as possible, so we would expect and hope that you would receive them earlier than the above timeframes. If you have a particular need to get a print quickly, please let us know in the order notes and we'll prioritize it for you, or you can email us at info@petercox.ie.
Prints are well-packaged and in the unlikely event that it arrives damaged, we'll send a replacement free of charge.
When your order ships, you'll receive an email with your tracking number.
Thanks for your trust, and we hope you get many years of enjoyment from your new print!
