01 Work, The Art of War, Henry Zaidan's The Guard, with footnotes #99

Henry Zaidan
The Guard, c. 2024
900x1000

The guard wears a helmet with a chain mail, finely decorated. Notably, visible is a shamshir, strapped to her side. She slightly leans in front of the beautifully carved wooden door she is guarding. The façade of the building is surmounted by an elegant calligraphic panel framed by Iznik carvings.
