Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: In a city with many buildings showing the characteristic striped buildings (Ablaq) it was fun to see a striped car hood. I know the picture can be seen as out of scope in the Ablaq category.
It may interest people to know that though Ablaq is described as "a feature of Islamic architecture" in the English Wikipedia, elsewhere on the web one can read (https://www.architectural-review.com/archive/the-curious-history-of-striped-architecture - Architectural Review) "Usually reserved for important civic and sacred buildings, stripes were employed in Roman times, and have appeared throughout Western architecture ever since. " I leave discussion to the specialists. |
