DESCRIPTION:
Spirals are a constant presence, from the art of Late Stone Age Central Europe, through megalithic temple sculptures, the La Tene bronzes of the Gauls and Britons, and Pictish jewels, to the marvellous system of Celtic art's golden age in the early middle ages. Aidan Meehan gives detailed practical advice on how to adapt that living tradition to the demands of modem craft and design, with the aid of abundant illustrations.. The oldest and most characteristically Celtic type of design, spiral patterns illustrate vividly the continuity between pagan and Christian Celtic art
Ivan Henson said its ok. its ok. Leila said A great introduction. I thought this volume would be more detailed or too much specific about the spiral patterns but Meehan managed to balance written and visual information, it's great for beginners on the celtic patterns.. Five Stars Nancy L. Nixon good
