Ajlun District Carved Jordan Mkeis Panelling
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us back in time to the enchanting Ajlun district of Jordan. The focal point of this image is an extraordinary stone door, located at M keis, that showcases exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail. Carved meticulously out of basalt, this door is a true testament to the skill and artistry of its creators. What makes this stone door truly remarkable is its ability to imitate wooden panelling. Every inch of its surface has been intricately carved and shaped to resemble the texture and grain patterns found in natural wood. This clever technique adds a touch of warmth and familiarity to an otherwise rugged material, creating a harmonious blend between nature's elements. Dating back to 1920, this photograph captures not only the beauty but also the historical significance of this architectural masterpiece. It stands as a silent witness to centuries gone by, preserving the rich heritage and cultural identity of Jordan's Um Qays region. As we gaze upon this stunning image, we are reminded that art knows no bounds – it can transform even the most ordinary objects into extraordinary works that transcend time itself. The Liszt Collection allows us access into these hidden gems from around the world, inviting us on a journey through history with each carefully curated piece they offer.
