About work
The picture depicts the great and ancient city of Samarkand. Poets and philosophers called it the garden of the heart, the jewel of the East, the mirror of the world. The artist describes the night scene of a unique city that has so many beauties. The blue dome, in harmony with the color of the sky and mountain ranges, has created a wonderful scene.
The crescent moon carved on the dome has a special symbolic meaning in the Muslim world, and it signals to the audience that the building is a mosque. The artist depicted him from above, as if watching from a window. This caused the mosque to come to the fore.
