Prof. Ernie Haerinck reveals evidence of the sun god temple at Ed-Dur, dating back to 100 CE, housing an eagle statue and Roman bronze sculptures. Ed-Dur blended Mesopotamian and Hellenistic influences to shape their deities. Another noteworthy site within the UAE is the monastery of Nestorian Christians, constructed on Sir Bani Yas Island in Abu Dhabi after the 6th century.

Within its grand architectural backdrop, the painting orchestrates an assembly of eminent ancient Greek philosophers, mathematicians, scholars, and scientists. Remarkably, this gathering transcends temporal boundaries, as it also includes the presence of Arab scientist Ibn Rushd from Cordoba. This interplay of diverse cultures underscores the painting’s significance as a testament to the exchange of ideas and the interwoven tapestry of human thought.

In his commentary, Ibn Rushd explores the relationship between ethics and reason, discussing topics such as virtue, morality, and the pursuit of happiness. He also wrote commentaries on Aristotle’s “Metaphysics“, “Physics” and other works. Ibn Rushd’s commentaries were widely studied in universities in the Middle Ages, including the University of Padua.

Vermeer’s “Girl with a Pearl Earring” created around 1665 CE, has been interpreted as portraying a young woman in an attire with exotic influences, potentially inspired by Ottoman court fashion. The blue turban and lemon-yellow veil-like cloth cascade from the top to the shoulders, presenting an exotic Ottoman attire from the Dutch perspective. Particularly captivating element of the painting is the substantial waterdrop-shaped pearl hanging from her ear. The segment of the pearl glistens with a golden hue, creating a vivid contrast against the shaded area of her neck. During that era, Oman and Ras Al Khaima in UAE were prominent pearl producers in the Middle East, catering to Europe’s demand for these exquisite gems.
