Product Description
HISTORY
The Inverurie carved horse is the inspiration for the design of three connecting horses in a circle as a triskele designed by George Bain (1881-1968) the Scottish artist and teacher famous for chronicling Celtic Art.
Inverurie is a town in Scotland where Pictish carved stones are found in the graveyard dating from the 7th Century.
The Picts were a tribe of peoples living in the East and North of Scotland. Little is known of their origins but they were called 'Picts' by the Romans because of their painted and tattooed bodies. They famously resisted the Roman invasion of Scotland. They left no written records so all we have to learn about them are their many carved stones.
