Image description

this mihrab is an excellent example of Fatimid stucco. it is possible to observe the infilling of the abstract vegetal leaves with a variety of geometric patterns. the mihrab's variety of kufic inscriptions is impressive ranging from the floriation of the large letters in the lower niche to the plainer letters of the outer band set on a foliated scrolling background-detail of cast of mihrab-plaster-inv.n.3099-from the mosque of Ibn Tulun-original datable to 1097-IMG_5300
