About the work

A narrow alleyway winds through an old stone city, framed by a crumbling archway overhead and sunlit walls receding into the distance. The composition captures the quiet atmosphere of a historic Syrian quarter, with arched windows, wooden beams, and dappled light playing across the weathered stonework.

Abd Al Manan Shamma (Syria, –present).
