Wonderful pictures Mike. I assumed they were hand coloured until I read the blurb. I imagine the sharpness of the pictures was at least partly due to the size of the format.

The embroidered leaf pattern of the "peasant woman" was very beautiful,
and so was the blue clothing of the emir.
Very inspiring.
