The Hammam
The Hammam is one of the most atmospheric works in Idris Vale's Arabesque Isometry. A bathhouse complex of clustered ribbed domes, each pierced with star-shaped skylights, rises above steaming turquoise plunge pools set into marble floors inlaid with gold mosaic stars. Vale renders the cupolas, arches and rising wisps of steam with octane-render clarity, warm light pooling on the pale stone. The scene radiates a sense of quiet ritual and luxurious calm, the eye wandering from dome to glowing pool. Serene, intricate and beautifully composed, it captures the hushed sensual world of the hammam as an exquisite architectural treasure.
An original oil painting on canvas by Idris Vale, painted to order — never a reproduction. Luxurious isometric renders of Moorish palace architecture — sandstone courtyards, turquoise pools and intricate gold arabesque inlay, like jewelled dioramas.
