Home and family are what make Christmas, and if you note in the painting, there are frozen Hawthorns atop a Mound beside the house, as is a common sight in these parts of Meath. These mounds were also homesteads long ago, often dating from the iron age and so showing a continuity of human habitation, a place to call home, from earliest times.They are also said to be home to the Aos Sidhe or Fairy people and are therefore mostly left untouched out of respect for an aspect of folklore that has been kept alive to this day
