Description:
This exceptional artwork, The National Flag of the Faroe Islands on Real Thin-Tailed Sheepskin, beautifully portrays the iconic Merkið, a symbol of Faroese identity and their bonds with other Nordic nations. Created by the acclaimed artist Alhaz GK Mushahid, this piece represents a seamless blend of historical tradition and artistic craftsmanship.
The flag features a red Nordic cross fimbriated in blue, set against a white background. White signifies the radiant Faroese sky and the foam of the sea, while the red and blue pay homage to the shared cultural and historical connections of the Nordic countries.
Originally devised in 1919 by Jens Oliver Lisberg and his colleagues, the Merkið became the national flag of the Faroe Islands in 1948 and remains a proud emblem of the Faroese people. This hand-painted rendition on authentic thin-tailed sheepskin preserves the flag’s cultural significance and is perfect for collectors, museums, and those who admire Nordic heritage.
