The Celts in Art and Imagination

The Harvard Art Museums have launched "Celtic Art Across the Ages," the first major exhibition of its kind in the United States. Spanning over 2,500 years, the show features nearly 300 objects including ceremonial pony caps, banqueting vessels, and jewelry crafted from amber and jet. The exhibition is organized into four thematic sections—Archaeology, Art, Encounters, and Reception—highlighting the functional nature of these highly decorative objects and their roles in trade and daily life from the first millennium BCE to the present.
