This is a dark image, a depiction of a ruin under a foreboding sky where a man sits alone, head down. A drab double rainbow half-heartedly appears in the background.
Today experts agree that Stonehenge was used as a cemetery and probably as a temple of some kind but was not built by the Druids as once believed.
