Sweet! Complexity through simplicity.
This reminds me when I used to live in Bahrain back in the eighties. The souk, a huge bazaar, had tons of stuff with elegant designs such as this, scarves, rugs, etcetera with all these great designs.
Now I'm gonna hafta watch the Thief and The Cobbler again on YouTube!
Thanks so much for this, as for all your other hard work. It's truly appreciated
Will there ever be any more scans of this fantastic book?
I would love to read the author's comments on some of the other illustrations.
MANY THANKS!!!!
