EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving captures the essence of Ancient Celtic warriors preparing for battle, accompanied by a revered shaman. Created by an Italian School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases the intricate details of their attire and weaponry. The warriors are dressed in tunics adorned with animal skins, symbolizing their connection to nature and their fierce warrior spirit. Their shields proudly display intricate designs, reflecting both their individuality and allegiance to their clans. Each warrior wields a formidable spear or sword, ready to defend their land with unwavering courage. Standing amidst these brave fighters is the shaman, a holy man believed to possess supernatural powers. His presence adds an air of mysticism and spiritual guidance as he prepares them for battle. Adorned with antlers upon his headpiece, he embodies wisdom and connects the warriors to ancient traditions. This illustration offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Celts - a civilization known for its strength in warfare and deep-rooted spirituality. The semi-naked appearance of some warriors further emphasizes their fearlessness on the battlefield. Preserved within private collections like The Stapleton Collection, this artwork serves as a reminder of our ancestors' bravery and resilience throughout history. It invites us to appreciate not only their military prowess but also their profound connection with nature and belief systems that shaped Celtic society centuries ago.
