[QUOTE="stracci, post: 2845285, member: 13814"]I found this framed illustration in a thrift store. Of course I took it out of the frame to get a better look. The image size is 3"x6". Is it Indian, or maybe Pakistani? It looks like a story about a wealthy man and his lovers. They are eating dates, or some other sweet. It's very beautiful and intricate. Upon closer inspection with a flashlight, I can see that two pages were bonded together. Lots of worm holes around the edges, too. Any ideas on age or subject matter?
