Thanks Rick...this is what I was hoping people would do is toss out some thoughts and I was curious to know how accurate of representation this is or perhaps romanticized European "oriental" interpretations...just like some of the paintings that where the subject of another thread awhile back, but none the less some are very well executed and admirable none the less.
