Elusive Quarry, Very Like a Whale
By MICHELLE SLATALLA
SUPPOSE there was a time when even Captain Ahab managed to temporarily suppress his urge to pursue Moby-Dick. For a while I gave up trying to buy an antique Oriental rug.
But aside from the peg leg, Ahab and I have much in common. His obsession eventually led him back to sea on an ill-fated expedition. Mine sent me shopping online.
In the months since I last wrote about my search, my goal has remained clear: to buy a better rug than I could otherwise afford by paying a below-market price.
While I was willing to pay a substantial amount for a quality rug, I turned my back on the methods of shopping that had pointed me toward the realm of retail prices. I quit borrowing rugs from stores to test in my living room. And no more real-life auctions where I became paralyzed by indecision as other bidders stared.
Instead I spent the spring reading rug collectors' posts at message boards like spongobongo.com,"

Islamic art and Persian Miniature Paintings: "Visit More Oriental Rug Notes by Barry O'Connell
The Plates of La Miniature En Orient
This is a look at some fine works of Islamic art. Following my tastes it leans more towards sixteenth century Persian Miniature painting. The biggest problem with these is getting good pictures. So I hope you enjoy what I have found so far.
