Celtic Graphics

Interlaced, interwoven motifs characterize Celtic design,
whether animal, human figure, letter, cross, or geometric.
Stay a While...

These images represent the Celtic fascination with spiral designs. Some of these show a remarkable similarity to Ying-Yang symbology of China, which I emphasize in the Wilson designs by color that I have supplied. I also recolored the spiral from Owen Jones, page 65, as spiral-01.gif,, a variation of oj-65-09.gif. This was an experiment to clean up scanned colors to produce a more solid, more graphic design

The thumbnail represents a 60 pixel representative portion of the design. The size of the full scale image is also given in pixels, width by height. The reference is to the original work from which it is scanned, and the page (usually). The date is the date the file was loaded on the server. The size of the full scale image file is in bytes.
