Chess Poster lecture

* Modern chess invented in 15th century - India, Persia
* standardised chess set = Modern Staunton chess set
* 12 piece set (6+6)

My chess pieces should be:
* differentiated from each other
* a set of symbols of a recognisable hierarchy/monarchy
* belonging to the same set - have a similarity which ties them together, a repeat eg. stroke weight, angle
* black and white (and invertible)
* 2D (silhouettes/outlines) or 3D rendered
* vector objects in Illustrator
