Title not known (Al Rassam 4)

Subject

Rural landscape with raft

Description

With this realistic representation, al-Rassam has captured a moment of tranquility as a small raft travels slowly down a smooth river. In the distance the ruins of the Great Mosque of Samarra are dwarfed within the expanse of the landscape. These hints of humanity have been subverted by the grandness of the landscape.
