One of my favourite courses I ever took in undergrad was a history of architecture course for which we had to sketch to a theme each week. It is such an amazing way to see things in a new light, so I can only imagine how enriching this course would be.

A friendly PSA for my fellow Canadians: the Americano as the name for the coffee drink is already a knock against Americans who were scoffed at by Italians for drinking watered down coffee, so please, I beg of you, don’t rename it the Canadiano. It’s not the clever move you think it is.

So this is really cool: a stamp impression from the library of the Ilkhanid vizier Rashid al-Din (d. 1318). It reads “pious endowment [waqf] of the Rashidiyya library,” & it may have been inspired by Chinese prints/stamps. Stamped waqf notices are totally unheard of for this time!
