Tapestry show
A tapestry show rolled through town for one day. Nobody was there but me and some French tapestry weavers, though I heard a bunch of the ruling sheikhs were there earlier in the day. These tapestries were absolutely gorgeous. Sadly, my camera ran out of batteries and I only took four pictures.
This one is my second-favorite, and the best one I got a photo of. I met the artist, a refined French gentleman. This one is clickable for a bigger view.
I didn't get a photo of the best one. It was the size of a small movie screen, a depiction of rearing Arabian horses in gold, white and silver. When you looked closely, every image was composed of ornate Arabic script from the Koran. It was unbelievably beautiful. And only $500,000.

Ah, a shocking news update that Eric may not have heard: the infamous Connecticut Ave rug store is now "officially" closed! We all know it was a cover for the mafia, anyway.
