Souk fragments 6

In this monochromatic masterpiece, Ahmed Alnahas captures the rhythm of daily life in a Sudanese marketplace through striking silhouettes and selective color accents. Figures in yellows, blues, and earth tones populate a sun-bleached courtyard, where children play with a ball, vendors sit beneath arched colonnades, and a donkey carries its rider. Dogs weave through the crowd while a yellow minaret punctuates the scene. The painting's high contrast and animated composition evoke the heat, movement, and timeless community spirit of the souk.
