EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Bishops stone at Killadeas in Ireland, a remarkable artifact that tells a story of religious and cultural transformation. Dating back to the 6th century AD, this stone bears witness to the transition from pagan Celtic beliefs to Christianity in ancient Ireland. The front face of the stone features a striking head that once belonged to a pagan Celtic figure. However, over time, its body was removed and replaced with an intricate Celtic interface pattern. On one side, we can see the figure of a Christian Bishop or Abbot holding a bell and crozier, symbolizing his role within the early Irish Church. Located outside in County Fermanagh's picturesque landscape, this historic object stands as a testament to the evolution of spirituality and belief systems throughout centuries. Its vibrant colors bring life to its carved details and emphasize its significance as both an artistic masterpiece and an important relic of religious heritage. As we gaze upon this photograph taken by CM Dixon, we are transported back in time - contemplating how different religions intertwined and influenced each other during these transformative periods. The Bishops stone invites us to reflect on our own concepts of faith while appreciating Northern Ireland's rich cultural tapestry.
