Gilded Dome Ceiling, Samarkand, Uzbekistan — Silk Road Travel Photography Poster (Premium Matte)

Look up inside a Samarkand mausoleum and the ceiling dissolves into gold. Craftsmen layered honeycombed muqarnas, painted medallions and interlaced star-work in cobalt and gilt, drawing the eye up to a ribbed cupola at the crown. 

Every surface is worked — there is no empty space, only pattern folding into pattern — a deliberate vision of paradise rendered overhead for those who came to pray and remember. Six centuries on, the gold still holds its light.

Part of the Green Global Trek Uzbekistan Collection — original photography from 15 years on the road.
