carpet auction::This happened to william robinson when a fax arrived on his desk in october 1993.
The poor quality of the fax and its barely discernable outline of a lion did not seem to pave the way to that particular milestone in his career.
When he visited the lion in a london warehouse, he knew instantly that he had made a phenomenal find.
The bronze lion was the only known companion piece to what is possibly the most impressive piece of islamic bronze sculpture in existence, the griffin of pisa.
A fellow of the royal asiatic society, he hopes to make many more discoveries of lost works of art.
Robinson is the author of numerous articles for publications such as apollo and hali and an internationally recognized lecturer on carpets and turkish pottery.
Robinson is a graduate in art history and archaeology from cambridge university.
