Art Donovan writes, "I've created a current collection of illuminated designs
that take cues from just about every global, antique influence I can find. My
latest work, 'The Most Excellent Rumi Redux' stretches my sources just about
as far as I've gone yet."

We've featured a lot of Art's excellent work before.

> Mr. Donovan’s newest design, “Rumi Redux”, uses influences from the 13th
century Persian poet, Rumi. The imagery (and Arabic calligraphy) is inspired
by the famous 12th century Persian scientist, al Jazari. The crown art is
entirely hand painted in gouache and gold leaf with translucent dyes used for
the back-lit elements.

>

> The back-lit, glowing “Eye” is inspired by an early 19th century painting
from an English masonic lodge. The comet is reproduced accurately from the
16th century German, “Wunderzeichenbuch” (The Book of Miracles). The Persian
elephant is reproduced from an early illuminated text and the crescent moon is
2" thick, frosted convex lens- which is then back-lit and rear painted in deep
red to evoke earth shine. The solid mahogany base is painted in pale matte
gray with hand made brass and silk tassels.
