One special “Thank you”
goes to Jónheðin H. Tróndheim and his wife Irena. They “bore the
brunt”. Without Jonheðin our stay could have taken at least a couple of
weeks – which would not have been a bad thing, really, because the
Faeroes invites to staying indefinitely!
Among 600 pictures mostly of sheep, we have chosen nr. 1 calling it:

Faeroe
Sheep Classic |

This ewe is from Kirkjubøur,
the place from where Stefan Adalsteinsson in 1978 wrote his classic
scientific work: “Frequency of color genes in the Faeroe Island Sheep”
At a fashion show on June 9 at the Faeroe Islands Representation, North Atlantic House, Copenhagen, the designer, Malan á Lofti, will show the exceptional variation in the colour genes of the Faeroe Island Sheep. In her hands, all these colour genes are transformed into design, a design appealing directly to the urban human being of our time!
