Synopsis

More than a religious manuscript, the Book of Kells is considered a crowning glory of Celtic art — and one of the most important treasures of Western Europe. These sixteen splendid drawings from that ancient book invite colouring book fans of all ages to reproduce some of the great works of early Christian art. Included are striking images of celestial figures, winged creatures, a menacing mythical beast, and other dramatic images framed by traditional Celtic ornaments. Coloured pictures take on aspects of real stained glass art when placed in a bright window or near another source of bright light.
