Snowy Tribute To Game Of Thrones' Starks

An artist has walked for 32.5km (20 miles) in the French Alps to create a huge, snowy tribute to Game Of Thrones.

Inspired by the character Jon Snow, Simon Beck's House Stark sigil (a house crest or emblem) of a direwolf ended up measuring the size of two and a half football pitches.

The Briton, who is renowned for using land as the canvas for his drawings, trudged a total of 64,800 footsteps on snowshoes for 13 hours to make his work of art.

Somerset-born Beck used a set of sketches to measure how many steps would be needed for each part of the drawing.

With just a compass as his guide, the artist with a background in orienteering map-making undertook the challenge in freshly fallen snow at the Les Arcs ski resort.

Snow, played by British actor Kit Harington, is the illegitimate son of Eddard Stark (Sean Bean), of House Stark in the fantasy epic.
