A Beast with Torc Tail
This spotted creature, often mistaken for a dog, features a curling tail textured like a torc—a deliberate visual pun. Rather than a careless rendering, the ambiguity is artful. This Gundestrup Cauldron panel (150 BC-1 AD) invites close scrutiny, blurring boundaries between animal, symbol, and adornment to spark recognition and reflection.
