I called in on the exhibition of Tiger Rugs at Sotheby’s. I hadn’t realised that it included examples of early rugs, like those which were shown at the Hayward Gallery in 1988:-

There are also modern versions, woven in India. One by Kiki Smith:-

By Francesco Clemente:-

And a particularly beautiful one by Anish Kapoor (all sold):-

    They were featured in an article in weekend FT. the Anish Kapoor one looked terrific in their photo and even better close up in yours. I like the new photos of you too.
