This framed artwork depicts the House of Wonders (Beit al-Ajaib) in Stone Town, Zanzibar City, Zanzibar, Tanzania, viewed from the water. The piece is created using various natural, woven, or laid plant fibers, exhibiting shades of light beige, brown, and darker brown, which form distinct textures for the sky, building, and water. The central subject is the multi-story House of Wonders, characterized by a prominent central clock tower with a white conical roof and a flagpole at its apex. The building features numerous rectangular windows, a large arched main entrance, and multiple tiered balconies with intricate balustrades along its facade. In the foreground, a traditional wooden dhow sailboat with a single triangular sail is depicted on the water, moving left-to-right. A single, dark silhouette representing a person is visible within the dhow. The water surface is textured horizontally with varying fiber shades. The sky is rendered in lighter, muted tones, and two dark bird silhouettes are visible in flight. The artwork is enclosed within a dark reddish-brown wooden frame. A signature "NAAMAH" and the year "2019" are inscribed in the lower right corner of the artwork.
