Cernunnos in Terracotta – the Horned Nature God

From the popular American artist Maxine Miller, famous for her imaginatively magical and symbolic depictions from Celtic and pagan culture, comes this beautiful, terracotta-coloured hand-painted figure of the horned Celtic god Cernunnos. The god of nature and fertility is portrayed in his athletic, naked beauty, only lightly covered by twigs and leaves. While a serpent winds around his left arm, in his right hand he holds the ram-horned serpent as a symbol of fertility and masculine power. As a further sign, a wolf stands at his feet, proving that Cernunnos is also the god of animals. That this is a Celtic god is also shown by the triskele formed from twigs on his belly. With this, Maxine Miller seeks to demonstrate imaginatively that the forest god was, in mysticism, ascribed the threefold nature of man, from whom wisdom, protection and nourishment were expected. This 26.5 cm tall, 12.5 cm wide and 9 cm deep detailed god figurine of high-quality, delicately hand-painted polyresin is an aesthetic eye-catcher and, for collectors and anyone fascinated by Celtic history and its gods, also a wonderful gift.

The Terracotta Variant of the Horned God

In its warm, earthy terracotta tone, this Cernunnos figure looks especially connected to nature and underlines the character of the forest god. In modern paganism and the Wiccan tradition, Cernunnos as the “Horned God” is one of the most important male deities and stands for the eternal cycle of nature. The terracotta-coloured sculpture finds its place on an altar, at a Wheel of the Year festival or as nature-inspired décor in the living room, and makes a thoughtful gift for followers of Celtic spirituality and pagans.
