THANKS TO GOD!!!!!
Yes, yes, yes...This is a picture of mentioned crab leg bow. A bow is short like in turkish style, maybe painter wasn`t precise when he painted grip, interesting stuff is that string is located at the short syiah in similar position like in kaiyuan bow, i think it`s another argument that this style was used in medieval serbian army(and possibly in other armies in South- East Europe).

Zoran,
I would be interested in your pictures. All of the Slavic countries had complex histories with many interactions between the East and West. In the South in the various kingdoms, the infuences produced unique and valuable cultures.
In regard to the bow Adam mentioned, it is definitely an interesting weapon. I have seen another similar one in a catalogue which I no longer have access to, but it backs up Adam's theory that the Medici one was not just an experiment. Have any of our friends been to see it?
