Product Description

Product Description
This is study of Celtic manuscripts with a collection of 16 alphabets of decorated letters. Some of the Celtic styles represented are knotwork, animal, spiral, maze and plant and the alphabet of lions from the Book of Kells is recreated. From 6th-century birds to late medieval dragons, from early Celtic spirals to the later Tree of Life - the text shows the evolution of the letter forms, from Roman to Irish Gothic.

4.0 out of 5 stars A source of inspiration, 24 Dec 2002
This book by Aidan Meehan is a true good source of inspiration for Celtic artists, type designers and everyone interested in calligraphy. Meehan is a well known contemporary Celtic artist and also the author of The Celtic Design Series, and in this book he draws 14 complete alphabets inspired for the ancient Celtic masterpieces as the Book of Kells.
