The carpets are 16th century "Portuguese" carpets, made in India with depictions of Portuguese boats from the "discovery" era. Check out the Gulbenkian Museum in Lisbon for a very nice one. This picture is from the Museum Fuer Angewandte Kunst in Austria.
Call me Mr. Metro if you must, but I do love your blogterior decor.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I do love the books over at your place. I may have to add some books to the decor at some point.
