About the work

A densely layered cityscape of Jerusalem unfolds across this print, its domes, minarets, and stone arches anchored by bold Arabic calligraphy spelling Allah at the centre. The composition blends geometric fragmentation with architectural detail, rendered in warm sepia and ivory tones that evoke antiquity and devotion.

Rafiq Al Laham (Jordan, 1931–2021).
