Story
A photograph of the Madagascan coast
The rug transcribes a photograph by Yann Arthus-Bertrand from the series La Terre vue du ciel. The photographed coast and sea floor are near the delta of the Tsiribihina River, north of Morondava in the province of Toliara, Madagascar. The river reaches the Mozambique Channel through that delta, which is a site of the Ramsar Convention.
