Sunlight bathes the scene, casting long shadows and illuminating the intricate tile work, making the entire space appear alive with color and movement. This artwork breathes history, capturing a timeless moment in time, and invites us to reflect on the customs and traditions of a bygone era, enveloped in the warmth of togetherness and community.
