Title A name given to the resource Zoomorphics Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Vector image created from George Bain book Celtic Art. Description An account of the resource Zoomorphic ornaments are those based upon the forms of animals, birds and reptiles. Anthropomorphic ornaments are those based upon the forms of the human body. They make an early appearance in the Art of Bronze-age Britain and Ireland, and in the Bronze-age Gaulish, la Tene, and other European forms of Celtic Art. - George Bain - Celtic Art, The Methods of Construction. Zoomorphism is the shaping of something in animal form or terms. Examples include: Art that imagines humans as non-human animals. Art that portrays one species of animal like another species of animal. https://openvirtualworlds.org/broadlands/files/original/1/393/BainSpirals.jpg e3a6d1bc9432eeaab736421a8115c42e Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Spirals Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Vector image created from George Bain book, Celtic Art. Subject The topic of the resource A spiral is a curve which emanates from a central point, getting progressively farther away as it revolves around the point. Description An account of the resource The noble spirals of Aberlemno, Shandwick, Tarbat, Hilton of Cadboll, Nigg the Tara Brooch, and the Ardagh chalice led the way to the great art of the scribes, who produced the supreme masterpieces of the world’s decoration of books, profusely embellished with spiral art. The few survivors of a great artistic period, the books of Durrow, Kells, Lindisfarne and St. Chad will shed a light for future generations upon the greatness of the art and the other cultures of the Picts and the Briton. - George Bain - Celtic Art, The methods of Construction.

Title A name given to the resource Plant Forms Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Vector image created from George Bain book, Celtic Art. Description An account of the resource The reference to the plant forms which rarely occur in the Book of Kells and not at all in the Book of Durrow and Lindisfarne, have been used to prove that the two latter books belong to an earlier period. It is the author’s opinion (George Bain), based upon many evidences, that the Book of Lindisfarne is later than the Book of Kells. Foliated ornaments entered Southern Britain with the Roman invasions, and forms of Gothic foliage came with the invaders after the fall of Rome, but they differ from those of the Pictish Stones of East Scotland and those of the Book of Kells. In the portions of that book that have been available to the author for research, namely the “studio” publication in colours, of some of its most important pages, and “Celtic Illuminative Art” in black and white, by Rev. Stanford F.H. Robinson, M.A., the examples, with one exception, emerge from pots or beakers. The extreme minuteness of these examples make it probable that the pots have not been noticed and no known mention of them has hitherto been made. Without any possible doubt, this is a pagan and, later, a Christian symbol and its use was a religious one and not merely decorative. - George Bain, Celtic Art, the Method of Construction.

Title A name given to the resource Human Figures Subject The topic of the resource Human Figures Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Vector image created from George Bain book, Celtic Art. Description An account of the resource The representations of human figures by Celtic Artists were influenced by the Pagan Laws that forbade the copying of the works of the Almighty Creator. In Celtic Zoomorphic ornaments the physical appearance of man was not copied. His legs, arms, body, topknot, hair and beard interlaced with each other. Portraiture of a living person, in his created form was a heinous crime. The portrayal of the Saints of the sacred Gospels in the Book of Kells and Lindisfarne was that of a persons who had long departed from earthly habitation and of the angels who were migrants of the Heavenly Host. - George Bain, Celtic Art, The Methods of Construction.
