Turkey | Istanbul | Jahongir Ashurov | More Miniatures

Couldn’t resist adding a couple more miniatures from the Jahongir Ashurov Show now taking place in Istanbul. The first is apparently one of the favorites of Peony, who has a wonderful post up about, among other things, Orhan Pamuk’s novel My Name Is Red, which of course deals with the whole subject of miniatures.
Miniature by Jahongir Ashurov:
Musician
Detail of Musician
The second one I cannot resist because it portrays camels, for which I have a Soft Spot in my heart.
Camels
I ask you, who cannot help but Love Camels?

So glad you put it back up :)
It is such a lovely painting, I think... more soon. (did you start Pamuk's newest novel yet? I may wait for the paperback...)
