Geometrical Ornamentation at the Omayyad Mosque

af Lisa Kwan

There are 6 marble window grilles located on the west side of the courtyard in the Omayyad Mosque in Damascus. Claimed to be original elements in what is one of the oldest extant Islamic monuments, they may well represent one of the earliest usage of geometrical ornamentation in Islamic architecture.
