About the piece
Painted in 1911 by Jan Ciągliński, this impressionistic work captures the serene architecture of the Mosque of the Sword in Kairouan, Tunisia. The artist employs a muted palette of sandy ochres and soft blues, focusing on the play of light across the domed structure. Ciągliński's spontaneous brushwork and heavy canvas texture lend the piece an authentic, historical character typical of early 20th-century travel sketches.
