Description
The Maqta Tower is the oldest building in Abu Dhabi and stood guard in the channel between the mainland and Abu Dhabi's main island (on which the city is now based). The Bedouin used it as a lookout during the periods they were at the coast and not inland amongst the dunes and oases. I've given the piece a more impressionistic treatment. Defending Maqta 76 x 67cm (30”x22”) oil on canvas.
