It's the entrance to Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi which has this amazing, beautiful relief carved on it. Peering through it, the cooler foyer leads to the open quad inside and the light hitting the domes and columns and reflecting in all directions. I've given the carved stone an impressionistic treatment and the rest of the stonework a more realistic treatment. It's subjective I know but I like that combination here. I may make a series with light at different times of day.Try it!
