This book was released on 2018-01-13 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The George a Hearn Collection of Carved Ivories Although ivory was employed freely for articles used in religious and domestic life, no reference need be made here to such objects anterior to the Consular Diptychs, or writing tablets, which were introduced in the days of the Roman Consulate, continuing from the fourth to the middle of the sixth century, a period of about a hundred and fifty years. Although only about fifty of these exist to-day, preserved in European Museums, they throw light on the customs of the Romans and are of great historical importance. These Diptychs are two-fold ivories, hinged together, carved on the outside, often with the Consul'sname and portrait. They were used as books for recording memoranda, the reverse sides being hol lowed slightly and coated with wax upon which the records were inscribed with a stylus, and were given away by the Consuls on their inauguration in office to the senators and influential friends. The number of these diptychs was so considerable that only those intended for friends in exalted position were made of ivory, others of simpler design and smaller, were often of bone.

Download or read book Ivory Carvings in Early Medieval England written by John Beckwith and published by Harvey Miller. This book was released on 1990 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ivory carvings are among the most beautiful achievements of medieval art. They reflect not only the deeply religious nature of the medieval world but also express the consummate skill and highly creative minds of those who carved them. The English craftsmen of the Early Middle Ages produced such renowned masterpieces as the Bury St Edmunds Cross and the Lewis Chessmen. John Beckwith provides a definitive study of English ivory carving from 700-1200 AD, which describes and illustrates over 160 carvings. He places the ivories in relation to contemporary illuminated manuscripts and enamel work. Through fascinating and lively portraits of some of the abbots and bishops who were the great patrons of their time, and in particular, Henry of Blois, bishop of Winchester, he places the art form firmly within its historical and cultural context.
