Latticework

We spent our last morning in Copenhagen at the Davids Samling museum, also known as The David Collection, to see their famed collection of Islamic art, the largest of its kind in Scandinavia and among the 10 most important in the Western world. I didn’t make notes so can’t identify most of the objects photographed, but it was truly an outstanding exhibition and beautifully displayed. More information can be found on the museum’s site http://www.davidmus.dk/en/collections/islamic

Gorgeous piece. The stars in the lattice are very appealing to me... V

That diagonal arc makes the piece quite striking. Without it, it would lose a lot of its charm.
