This unique set of carvings seemingly done by the same craftsmen during a short period, they seem to depict aspects and values of every day life. They show scenes with both a sense of humour and teachings of moral importance especially from the view of the Catholic Church. This wonderful carving shows a pig playing the harp. There are many carvings from the medieval period found throughout English Cathedrals today that show pigs and hogs having fun and participating in human cultural activities. In the middle ages these animals were thought of as being jolly, intelligent and most of all being happy and content with life in times that were very uncertain for the people of the period. Taken directly from the original carving this reproduction captures all the fine detail produced by the master craftsmen that carved the original. Designed to be wall mounted, comes with hanging hook and product label.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize 13cm diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kitty willow wilson ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44126617141428,"sku":null,"price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/7919\/4804\/files\/att.ptijNHGSwAvQmTXd-KKTcnm7gPCA7YL7Fq9kxBGJFFQ.jpg?v=1768906177","url":"https:\/\/www.badgerandblackbird.com\/en-us\/products\/medieval-carving-pig-playing-hard","provider":"BADGER \u0026 BLACKBIRD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
