Irish Castles

Over the past century a growth of interest in Ireland's architectural heritage has led to the restoration of a number of medieval buildings to their original condition. Others remain in the landscape as romantic ruins. The folk tales that have attached themselves to these imposing memorials to Ireland's past are almost as valuable a heritage as the buildings themselves.

Irish Cottages

The Irish Cottage is a national treasure, a part of the Irish landscape, a home. It can conjure up a tranquill way of life in times past and still serve us well in modern days. An Irish Cottage is indeed a part of the landscape and when something is designed and built with such a feel for its surroundings then it becomes a timeless classic.

The calendar has been produced utilising a fine art printing process which renders the images in a much higher resolution more akin to a photographic print.
This calendar features a location map which shows the locations where the photographs were taken and the calendarium also shows the phases of the moon.

Dublin, like most great cities, did not grow overnight. Founded by the Vikings over a thousand years ago, it has evolved through the Middle Ages and Georgian Era to become one of the friendliest and most fashionable capitals in Europe. This illustrated guide tells the story of Dublin and introduces some of its more important sights to the visitor - from medieval cathedrals and eighteenth century architectural masterpieces to museums, public houses and parks. Featuring the photographs of Liam Blake, one of the city’s most renowned photographers, it is equally an aid to exploring Dublin and a tribute to its culture and history.

Despite its fame around the world, Dublin is a remarkably small and intimate city. This is an important aspect of its charm, for within the compact central districts are museums, art galleries, medieval cathedrals and churches, Georgian terraces and great public buildings – all part of a history that goes back over a thousand years. Yet Dublin is equally renowned for its lively pubs, theatres, music venues and literary heritage. All of these contribute to the contemporary city’s uniquely vibrant atmosphere and great social and cultural scene. 

Dublin ist wie viele großartige Städte nicht in einer Nacht erbaut worden. Die vor über tausend Jahren von Wikingern gegründete Stadt, hat sich über das Mittelalter und das georgianische Zeitalter zu einer der freundlichsten und modernsten Hauptstädten Europas entwickelt. Dieser illustrierte Reiseführer erzählt die Geschichte Dublins und stellt einige der wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten vor - von mittelalterlichen Kathedralen und architektonischen Meisterwerken aus dem 18. Jahrhundert zu Museen, Pubs und Pärken. Mit den Fotografien von Liam Blake, einer der renommiertesten Fotografen Dublins, dient er auch als Hilfe bei der Entdeckung Dublins sowie als Tribut an ihre Kultur und Geschichte. 

Trotz weltweiter Berühmtheit, ist Dublin eine bemerkenswert kleine und intime Stadt.  Dies ist ein wichtiger Bestandteil des Charmes der Stadt, wozu auch zentral gelegene Museen, Kunstgalerien, mittelalterliche Kathedralen und Kirchen, georgianische Reihenhäuser und beeindruckende öffentliche Gebäude gehören - alles Teile einer Geschichte, die auf über tausend Jahre zurückgeht. Dublin ist ebenso bekannt für lebhafte Pubs, Theater, Konzerthallen und ihr literarisches Erbe. All dies trägt zur einzigartig dynamischen Atmosphäre und der tollen gesellschaftlichen und kulturellen Szene der heutigen Stadt bei.

“Those who don’t know Irish pubs, and the interesting people who frequent them, will always possess only a superficial knowledge of Irish life and culture. The Irish pub is not only an excellent guide to many attractive centres of celebration; it is also a helpful and civilised introduction to higher education in a convivial atmosphere.

The book of Kells dates from c.800 A.D. and contains the four Gospels in Latin.

Now measuring 33 x 25.5 cm having been trimmed and rebound in the 19th century. It is written on vellum and the Gospel texts are prefaced with Canon Tables and characterisations of the Evangelists.

What makes the Book of Kells unique are the lavish illustrations intertwined with the text with the intention of glorifying God's creations. THEIR are many full pages containing decorations and symbols such as for the Cannon Tables.

The book was illustrated by what appears to have been four artists whose work has been likened to that of goldsmiths. A number of pigments were used including arsenic sulphate for yellow, red lead or an unidentified organic matter for red and blue was created from indigo or woad.

The Book of Kells was probably used for special ceremonial occasions rather than for daily services. This conclusion has been reached as the transcription of the text was sumptuous but also rather careless with some entire words having been omitted. In other sections texts have been repeated and subsequently painted over to hide the error.

Now bound into four volumes two of which are usually on view in the Old Library at Trinity College Dublin (one showing  a decorated page and the other text), the Book of Kells attracts in excess of 800,000 visitors a year.
