Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins of interlaced ornamentation, an ancient decorative style used in the British Isles. The author argues that this style was influenced by the widespread use of basket-making among the pre-historic inhabitants of Britain and Ireland. These early artisans used osiers, rushes and hide to fashion baskets for a variety of purposes, and the author believes that the interlaced patterns found on ancient stone and metalwork were inspired by the techniques and materials used in basketry. The author examines the use of interlacing in early Christian art, and how it was incorporated into the design of stone crosses, manuscripts, and other artefacts. This book provides a fascinating insight into the development of early art in the British Isles and sheds new light on the origins and significance of interlaced ornamentation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330878286_0
