Description:

The interlaced beasts, birds and serpents of Celtic art were the product of a fusion of European traditions, including those of the Anglo-Saxons and those of the early Celts themselves. Tracing the development of zoomorphic decoration, Aidan Meehan shows how we can re-learn this traditional art language, whose motifs range from griffins to greyhounds. Dynamic and ingenious animal patterns from ail over Northern Europe are illustrated, their construction explained in detail, and suggestions made for exciting variations, as we are invited to share in this rediscovery and adaptation of long-forgotten designs.
