Brief Bits Of

A Series
The Celtic

The first appearance of the
Celtic type was during the
Sixth Century. The style
leaned strongly toward the
Moe:ish, having an interlacing
and extravagant Interviewing
of lines typical OF the Moorish
and Arabian types. Upon
closer inspection the animal
seemed to be the dominant
motif. For instance, the figure
Of a fish with It's tail carried
round and round and inter
laced and interviewer with the
tails Of other fishes. The style
was no doubt original and
