Alan, Thanks! I will take a close up photo today.I've been mesmerized by that bow... it has an MC Escher quality where it is almost impossible to tell what is on top of what. Marvelous - perhaps one to share (a close-up please!) on the Bows take a Bow thread.

Spectacular! The dimensions are commanding, and I even like the back bow; something that I don’t normally care for.
Thanks! It has a tall crown!
