EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an extraordinary artifact from the Iron Age Celtic period - a Celtic fire-dog used for cooking meat. Dating back to the 2nd century, this remarkable piece was discovered in Capel Garmon, Denbighshire, Wales. The image beautifully captures the animal likeness of this ancient object against a striking black background. The fire-dog's intricate design and craftsmanship are truly awe-inspiring. Its color and details have been impeccably preserved over centuries, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance today. This studio shot perfectly highlights every curve and contour of the artifact, inviting viewers to marvel at its artistry. As we gaze upon this relic from another era, we can't help but imagine how it played a vital role in culinary traditions during that time. Used for cooking meat over open fires, this fire-dog symbolizes not only practicality but also cultural practices that were passed down through generations. Its discovery in Denbighshire adds another layer of fascination as it provides insights into the ancient Celtic communities that once thrived in Wales. This artifact serves as a tangible link connecting us with our ancestors and their way of life. Thanks to photographers CM Dixon and Mike Dixon's expertise behind the lens, we can now admire this incredible piece up close without any commercial intentions involved. Their attention to detail has allowed us to appreciate both the beauty and historical value encapsulated within this photograph print.
