Navy Tulip with Muraqqa

This artwork was made with a muraqqa technique.

Murakka is a type of traditional art created by gluing various artworks on top of each other on cardboard. In this example, the artist has combined three different ebru styles: battal (stone pattern), çiçek (floral) and basic (zemin), all designed to complement one another. The artist has used the battal ebru style to create the outer frame of this work, which is one of the basic patterns and is widely used in marbling, and the kumlu ebru style to create the inner frame, which is usually applied as a thin sill, drawn on the edges of the flowered marbling. The rose, a distinguished floral pattern in marbling, is the focal point of this work of art. The rose motif is well-known as a symbol of the prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him).
