Pictish Beasts

by Cyanocorax - uploaded on November 12, 2024, 7:00 am

I have traced some of the quadrupeds carved on Pictish stones. These stones are ancient monolithic steles found in Scotland, some of which feature animals. They date back to the 6th, 7th and 8th centuries.

Some images are lacking parts due to the stones being broken; in these cases I've suggested a reconstruction by means of a dotted line.
