EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two tomb-shaped shrines, crafted from bronze, that date back to the 8th century BC. The shrines are located in Lough Erne, County Fermanagh and are currently housed at the National Museum of Ireland in Dublin. The larger shrine measures approximately 16cm in length while the smaller one is about 10.6cm long. Interestingly, it is believed that the smaller shrine may have contained relics of saints as it was discovered inside the larger one. This remarkable piece of Early Irish Art provides a glimpse into ancient Celtic culture and craftsmanship. The intricate details on these tomb-shaped shrines highlight the skill and artistry of their creators. The photo captures both shrines with great clarity, allowing viewers to appreciate every curve and pattern etched into the metalwork. It's fascinating to imagine how these artifacts were used during early Christian times - perhaps as reliquaries or vessels for sacred objects. Displayed against a plain background, this image allows us to focus solely on these extraordinary pieces without any distractions. With its historical significance and artistic beauty, this photograph serves as a testament to our rich cultural heritage. Bridgeman Images has done an excellent job preserving this important relic through their photography expertise. This particular print is out of copyright, making it accessible for all to admire without any commercial restrictions.
