    Wouldn't this be perfect in an almost black wood frame with a wide red matting and thin gold undermatting, hanging on the wall of an oriental temple! Well, at least that's what sprang into my mind as soon as I saw it.

    Ian this is breath taking!!

    You're making me want to go to the zoo!
