In the meantime, the artist also planned and created a series of large monuments that can still be seen today in Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.In this painting, the face of a woman, with features reminiscent of Babylonian sculptures, the artist recalls the tradition of Iraq and surrounding areas. Signed and dated lower left. Defect on canvas. The authenticity is confirmed by the artist's heirs.
