#PhotoJanuary2024 Day 5 Theme of #Département In the UK we have #Shires and in a previous career I did some work on this tapestry from the 1590s, which is a map of Herefordshire & Worcestershire. It had been protected from the light for 100s of years, hence the bright colours. For a transliteration of the poem see Alt text. #Tapestry#Elizabethan#HistoricTextiles
Day 2 of #PhotoJanuary2024 and the theme #Insect This is not a real creature. It is a Japanese metal model of a praying mantis, about 10cm long, on display at the British Museum.
