The Kaaba at the centre of the Haram, minarets and domes on either side, crowds of pilgrims filling the courtyard, and the mountains of Mecca rising behind under a wide sky.
- Size: 122 x 120 cm (48 x 47 in)
- Material: handwoven wool
- Signature: Signed by the artist in the weave
- One of a kind: woven freehand with no sketch or cartoon behind the warp, so no second copy exists. The photographs show this exact piece.
Square and compact, it works above a console, in a study, or as the focal point of an entryway.
Hanging: the tapestry arrives without a sleeve or rod pocket. The simplest method is hook-and-loop tape sewn along the top edge, with the matching half fixed to a wooden batten on the wall. A clip rail also works, or a tailor can sew on a casing for a rod.
