This breathtaking original oil painting captures the timeless soul of ancient Iraq under a dramatic nocturnal sky. The legendary Malwiya spiral minaret of Samarra rises majestically on the left, its golden tiers glowing against the darkness. Across the shimmering river, a grand mosque with soaring minarets and ornate latticed windows stands in luminous detail. Traditional reed mudhif houses line the riverbank among swaying palms, while white-robed figures gather peacefully beneath a golden fringed tent — a scene of cultural warmth and living heritage.
Painted in rich, textured oil on canvas, this work is a tribute to Iraq’s architectural and cultural legacy. The artist’s masterful use of nocturnal light — deep blacks, warm golds, and teal reflections on the water — creates a composition of extraordinary depth and atmosphere.
This is a hand-painted original — not a print, not a reproduction. No two originals are alike, and once sold, this exact piece will never be available again. It is a rare opportunity to own a significant work of Iraqi heritage art.
