NB I🌸🐝.......

An early form of the term ‘bull’s eye’ seems to stem from the Latin for eye – ‘oculus’. This is a circular opening in the centre of a dome as seen at The Pantheon in Rome where the oculus illuminates the interior. Originating in antiquity, it is a feature of Byzantine and Neoclassical architecture. The term was later known as an œil-de-boeuf from the French or simply a "bull's-eye” 🎯E x

Its design, features what appears to be mandarin within a landscape flying kites on a beautiful indigo blue ground.

Chinese kites and its long history of cultural significance begins thousands of years ago. (475 - 221 B.C.) by Mozi and Lu Ban, two philosophers who came after the teachings of Confucius. Mainly, they were used for military purposes.

The first kites were what we today would call prototype kites: they were made of light wood and cloth and later silk. They were designed to mimic a bird's natural flight. The first Chinese kites were used for measuring distances, which was useful information for moving large armies across difficult terrain. They were also used to calculate and record wind readings and provided a unique form of communication like ship flags at sea.
