Lightbulb Recommend any non-eng examples of carving?

Hi,

Bit of a long shot but I'm a Picture Researcher in London. For a book I'm working on I need to source a photo of letters carved in wood. The wording must not be english though.

Can anyone recommend any carvers?, or, maybe beautiful churches or castles around the world that I could search images of? You'd think typing in 'latin/german etc wood carving' in a search engine would prove fruitful but I'm having no luck and would love some advice.

Default Re: Recommend any non-eng examples of carving?

"carved sign" german
"carved sign" gaelic

Both returned the results you're looking for on google. I'm guessing other languages would work as well.

Thank you so very much for that hint. I've now found a couple of suitable images to request. You're a star!
