I'll throw in some Arabic calligraphy just so spice things up.
Stańczyk by Jan Matejko
I love this. I always wondered what was going on with the paper on the table though.
marvelous!! I have friends in Poland
they always send me beautiful postage stamps about Chopin
i remember in humanities class, they showed pictures of abstract art from your culture, did your culture make that or was it something your cultures got in various conquests around the area of middle east or something
Those are actually very pretty.

>Stańczyk, the male figure depicted in the painting, was the court jester when Poland was at the height of its political, economic and cultural power during the era of the Renaissance in Poland, during the reign of King Sigismund I the Old (reigned 1506–1548).[1][2] He was a popular figure; besides his fame as a jester he has been described as an eloquent, witty, and intelligent man, using satire to comment on the nation's past, present, and future.[1][2] Unlike jesters of other European courts, Stańczyk has always been considered as much more than a mere entertainer.
>On the table lies a letter with the year 1514 and the name Smolensk, likely announcing that Poland has lost Smolensk (now in Russia) to the Grand Duchy of Muscovy, causing Stańczyk's sorrow and reflection on his fatherland's fate.[1] The letter seems to have been discarded by some official, and only the jester realizes its significance – while the rulers are partying, celebrating the recent victory at the battle of Orsha, disregarding the bad news about Smolensk.[1][2]
That certainly adds some more emotional punch. What a great painting.
Arabic calligraphy is Arabic.
How is that even a question?
We didn't get much from our conquests, anyway.
The Arab Empires were a mistake.
