Subject

Ornamented Composition with gold background

Description

This work by al-Haleem exhibits a dense application of an ornamented aesthetic. The composition resembles an abstracted landscape as the ornamentation takes on a floral form. Coupled with the stylized vegetation are two free-floating mask-like heads with rounded facial feature and two-dimensional eyes. The background of the composition is made up a rich gold adding to the vibrancy of this ornate work.
