unicorny

well, i am 1/3 of the way through finals. i had my history of rome exam this afternoon and i guess it went fine. i never know about these things. i know some people who -as soon as they finish an exam, rush to their textbook and lament over questions answered incorrectly and such but i'm not that way. even if i didn't do that well i feel like "no need worrying about it -there's nothing i can do now!" and i suppose that is how i feel about finals.

right now i a writing a paper on the unicorn tapestries in the Cloisters so i have been reading UP on unicorns and in my non-existent spare time i found these great unicorn themed prints on the blog magpieandwhiskyjack.blogspot.com

enjoy!

this one made me smile because a lot of the sources i have been reading talk about unicorns as a metaphor for Jesus...and this unicorn has cross-eyes. oh bruce mackay you are so up on your medieval unicorn iconography!
