Framed Celtic Print

The Irish words for life, laughter and love beatha, gáire and grá", presented in Ogham in 3 windows and in Irish and Latin letters beneath.  The original print is hand-painted and then dimensionally printed in contrasting hues of green. 

Ogham is the earliest written form of Primitive Irish, the oldest of the Gaelic languages. Ogham was first used in Ireland and parts of England, Scotland and Wales between the 2nd and 6th centuries. Though its actual origins remain a mystery today, it is believed the Celts desired a cryptic alphabet that could not be deciphered by Roman Britain.
