Description

A rising minaret stands at the center of this composition by Mukhallad Al-Mukhtar. The tower is patterned with the repetition of layered shapes and is accompanied by the outline of six other minarets to either side.

These bands, resembling the colors of the rainbow, continue down and are overlaid with interlacing forms and three arched segments that contain various symbols.
