EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolor drawing by James Moore, created in the year 1877. This beautiful artwork transports us back in time to the picturesque village of Dundonald, located in the County Down region of Northern Ireland. The painting showcases a collection of Kemp Stones, which were once a popular local curiosity and a source of fascination for both locals and travelers. James Moore, an accomplished artist, expertly captures the unique textures and colors of these intriguing stones. The image reveals a cluster of these stones, arranged on a mossy, uneven surface, with their smooth, rounded shapes and various shades of gray and brown, creating an intriguing contrast against the lush, green foliage in the background. The peaceful, serene atmosphere of the scene is further emphasized by the gentle, dappled sunlight filtering through the trees, casting dainty shadows on the ground. The artist's masterful use of watercolor techniques brings the scene to life, with each brushstroke adding depth and detail to the image. The Kemp Stones, also known as the Dundonald Stones or the Fairy Stones, were believed to have magical properties and were often used as talismans or amulets. According to local folklore, these stones were formed when the fairies danced on the shores of Dundonald Bay, leaving their footprints in the sand, which were later transformed into these unique stones. This exquisite watercolor drawing is a testament to the rich history and natural beauty of Ireland, offering a glimpse into the past and the fascinating stories that surround the Kemp Stones of Dundonald, Co. Down.
