My inspiration for this drawing of St. Peter the Apostle was 15th century Italian art. The border is similar to those of manuscripts illuminated in the white-vine style. The halo, like those in paintings by Gentile da Fabriano, resembles a gold platter from Mamluk Egypt, with false Arabic calligraphy (here spelling the words Amen and Alleluia) repeatedly.
