CELTIC AND ANGLO-SAXON ART: GEOMETRIC ASPECTS

by Derek Hull

Published by Liverpool University Press. 1st. 2003

Very good condition. Much of early medieval Celtic and Anglo-Saxon art is based on the display of motifs - key, interlacing, spiral and zoomorphic - in well-defined panels in simple and complex arrays. This book reflects the author's life-long interest in interpreting the exciting and exotic patterns revealed by scientific studies using light and electron microoscopes. Pictorial cardwraps. Colour & b/w illustrations. 254 pages including index.

Light fading to front cover. Covers slightly grubby. Book itself a little bowed but contents clean.
