Above the architectural scene, two ornate medallions within decorative frames display the names 'الله' (Allah) and 'محمد' (Muhammad) in Arabic calligraphy. A large crescent moon in low relief frames the lower portion of the composition, with arabesque ornamental scrollwork at its center. A short Arabic legend appears at the top of the field above the medallions. The design is enclosed by a beaded border. |
