5th year art history homework

Friday 24th March.


Please write the following notes on the Fibula into your hardback copies:


This type of fastener is an Irish adaptation of a northern European clothespin, in which two conjoined circular plates are furnished with a fastening pin; pins are absent in the Irish form.  Many of these fasteners (all except two are in gold) have been found in Ireland, where they have a wide distribution; such ornaments were also exported to Britain.  Also known as a fibula or fibulae.



You also have to draw it at the end of the note & answer 2014 OL question 1 on page 204 for next Friday please.
