Shepherds (Ireland)
This figure is from a cast limestone nativity
created by the studio of Kieran Forde in Kilcullen. The style of these
figures is reminiscent of early Celtic Carvings found throughout Ireland.
In the nativity, the simple forms of the figures, with their few carved
details, are set against a ruined Gothic arch. Here, an older and younger
shepherd stand with their arms around each other.
