Turkey. Shah Jahan era. Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge. @ambrin_hayat @DalrympleWill @Chemburstudio
Though never invested a very great deal of emotional energy in Thanksgiving, I thought this Shah Jahan era miniature was beautiful, and maybe one more reason to not eat the bird: ’cause it looks better than it tastes.

Me, I'm Nicholas Bakos, a.k.a. "NikoBako." I'm Greek (Roman really, but when I say that in English some five people in the world today understand what I'm talking about, so I use "Greek" for shorthand). I'm from New York. I live all over the place these days. The rest should become obvious from the blog.
