Letter 'd'
The Book Of Kells is most noted for its highly decorative illuminated text which, on most pages, features elaborate and brightly coloured letters at the beginning of each line or paragraph. This design is an illuminated letter 'd', featuring, to the left, a typical bird- like form. Animals and plants were purposely illustrated by the Celts in an unrealistic form in order to avoid imitating God's creation. Fabric: 14 HPI Aida
