| This Celtic lattice is a beautiful example of how elegantly Celtic artisans could capture a sense of organically flowing line and make it never ending. It is this ordered and interconnected sense of the world that they expressed and preserved artistically during the most vigorous phase of their culture. It was later, in their time of decadence and decline, that the Celts produced more representative and less abstract art in the form of extravagantly lush depictions of intertwined animals and plants. |
