Poludnica Pillows

Description: Południca (say: paw-wood-NEE-tsah), the noon demon of Polish folklore: a woman in white who walks the field edges at the hottest hour of the harvest day, carrying a sickle. She stops workers with difficult questions - whoever cannot answer loses their head or falls ill. The safe way was simple: stop work at midday. Original engraving-style artwork: the demon against the noon sun, sickle raised, ripe rye in the foreground. The version for light garments is here: https://www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/99634751
