As Sir Edward Sullivan wrote in his Introduction, "Its weird and commanding beauty; its subdued and goldless colouring, the baffling intricacy of its fearless designs; the clean, unwavering sweep of rounded spiral; the creeping undulations of serpentine forms that writhe in artistic profusion throughout the mazes of its decorations. the quaintness of its striking portraiture, have raised this ancient Irish volume to a position of abiding pre~eminence amongst the illuminated manuscripts of the world." In this famous commentary, Sullivan traces the historical background and origins of the manuscript and places it as a ninth century manuscript, of a later date than the Book of Lindisfarne. Popular legend, however, has it that The Book of Kells was produced by St Columba and the monks of the monastery of Kells about the middle of the sixth century AD. Certainly, the manuscript survived many vicissitudes: the Abbey of Kells was sacked and pillaged during the tenth century; thieves sought its gold~studded cover. It was in the possession of the monastery at Kells at the time of its dissolution under Henry VIII on 18th November 1539, and was latterly acquired by Bishop Ussher, who was employed by King James I to collect antiquities relating to the Church. Five years after Ussher's death in 1661, it was transferred to Trinity College, Dublin, where it still resides. The manuscript was mutilated by an eighteenth century bookbinder, but in its present form consists of 339 pages measuring 13 x 9½ inches. The late Sir Edward Sullivan, an outstanding authority, made an exhaustive study of this magnificent example of early Celtic art especially for The Studio; his historical survey and notes on the pages form the introduction to the reproductions in full colour of twenty of the most beautiful pages, and the four plates of initial letters. To complement Sullivan's text and these illustrations, this edition also includes an historical analysis of Celtic illuminated manuscripts by Johan Adolf Bruun.
