About the piece
Executed in 1840, this refined architectural study by the renowned artist John Frederick Lewis depicts the entrance of the Ulu Cami (Great Mosque) in Bursa. The work showcases Lewis’s masterful ability to balance precise architectural detail with a lively sense of place, using graphite and gouache to bring the ornate ceiling and traditional figures to life against the warm tone of the paper.
