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.

I'm Nicholas Bakos, a.k.a. "NikoBako." I'm Greek (Roman really, but only a handful of people today fully understand what I'm talking about when I say that, 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.
See especially "JADDE: THE MISSION AND STARTING OFF, the blog's first entry below, and JADDE: THE NAME OF THIS BLOG for my general agenda:
"What I hope this blog accomplishes is to create even the tiniest amount of common consciousness among readers from the parts of the world in question."
