Peacock Village in the Spice Bazaar

A blue peacock stands among the sacks and baskets of a spice bazaar, its long green train curled into a ring around a small stone town. The train is scattered with eye-shaped feathers in pink, orange and violet, with strings of red berries and white blossoms. Inside the ring, half-timbered houses with red roofs gather around a fountain, with market awnings and a stone bridge. A domed pavilion with a garden terrace and a laid table sits at the bird's back, where a person climbs a ladder toward the crest. Outside, heaps of turmeric, paprika and green cardamom spill from baskets beside patterned rugs, brass jugs, orange trees and striped stalls with shoppers and a cart. The rings of feathers repeat like a pattern, so a piece can be placed by its eye colour.
