Sylvanus Griswold Morley is known as the foremost expert on Mayan archeology and hieroglyphics. He was often called on for advice during the excavations of the famous Mayan temples. In one of his excavation notebooks there are some particularly beautiful free-hand sketches of Mayan hieroglyphs. It was from this notebook in the collections of the Palace of the Governors/New Mexico History Museum that Quoizel developed the loose floral pattern on the shade of this lamp.
