EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Early Christian Celtic figures that once adorned a church on White Island in County Fermanagh, Ireland. Dating back to the 8th century, these artefacts provide a glimpse into the rich cultural and religious history of this region. The figures, meticulously crafted with great attention to detail, stand proudly in a row. Each one represents a male likeness, displaying human features and characteristics. These sculptures were created as an expression of devotion and faith during a time when Christianity was taking root in Ireland. The vibrant colors used to paint these figures have remarkably survived the test of time, adding depth and life to their presence. Their significance extends beyond mere artistic value; they serve as tangible links connecting us to our ancestors' spiritual beliefs. Located in Northern Ireland's picturesque County Fermanagh, White Island holds immense historical importance. This photograph captures not only the beauty of these ancient artifacts but also invites contemplation about the people who worshipped within those hallowed walls centuries ago. Preserved by dedicated individuals like CM Dixon and Mike Dixon for future generations to appreciate, this print offers an opportunity for all admirers of art and history alike to marvel at these remarkable creations from early Christian Celtic culture - reminding us of our shared heritage and inspiring further exploration into Ireland's fascinating past.
