The Al-Hakim Mosque, also known as the al-Anwar Jamiʻ mosque, was built in Fatimid Cairo at the end of the tenth century. At the time, it was one of the largest mosques in the world. The mosque suffered the winds of time and entered a dilapidated state in the early modern era. Napolean's army turned this once great Fatimid structure into a stable, and over time, its remaining structures began to be replaced. However, since the mosque had a significance to the Dawoodi Bohra community of India, they chose to renovate and rebuild it, to resemble its former glorious state. There was a lot of work to be undertaken and this community rebuilt the mosque.
This work of art, based on the architectural feature of a Mishkaat (lamp) is very common in Islamic art and architecture because it is represents the beautiful words in the "Light Verse" from the Quran. This wall art, is a tribute to the mosque's history and heritage. This 16x12x1 (approximate) piece of wood has been painted and embellished to create an abstract and amazingly unique work of art.
It's an eye-turner and modern addition to any space in your home or office.
