But now it's one of my favorites!! <br /><br />It's great that you, too, see the Byzantine influence in this cover. Indeed, it seems that the Dillons loved this art style, as well. Maybe they liked it for the same reasons you do -- its combination of Western and Eastern influences.Maria Beharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13635809880830316283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5276110560172164522.post-19920401187491406812015-06-28T11:16:03.125-04:002015-06-28T11:16:03.125-04:00This is another great cover Maria.

As you point out it is Byzantine art.<br /><br /> I do not know nearly as much as I want to about this style. I know that I like it a lot. I think that one thing that draws me to it is the combination of Western and Eastern influences. <br /><br /><br />I really like the flowers.
