Just when you think you have seen it all! Hand painted Ostrich eggs by Iranian born artist, Haydar Hatemi, who now lives here in Lexington, KY. I photographed several of these masterpieces to help advertise this new exhibit at the Headley-Whitney Museum, titled, "Istanbul-Instanbul". These eggs are about 7 inches tall and the portraits painted on them are amazing. Kings around the world collect and commission them.
