    I clicked the link for Herrad, and the word "work" is used often! That bunny-dragon is creepy!

    Two special cards. The first is beautiful and who can resist the weird and wonderful medieval mind that came up with a cloak wearing bunny-dragon.

    These are beautiful. And such back-breaking work these women were doing.
