MIMOSA - Riyadh Painting

This painting brings to life a poetic verse by Nasser Al-Hamadin:

“Whoever has traveled the world and experienced life
will bow to Riyadh’s nose and kiss it in love.”

The sky swirls in the expressive, dreamlike style of Van Gogh, capturing the sense of a soul that has roamed the globe. Towering in the background, Mount Tuwaiq, standing as a symbol of Najd’s enduring pride and strength.

At the heart of the scene, a young woman represents Riyadh in its graceful and rooted in heritage. Beside her stands the man described by the poet: a traveler who journeyed through life and across continents, only to return home and truly see Riyadh for what it is, worthy of reverence, love, and admiration.
