Baitul Maqdis, also referred to as Al-Aqsa Mosque, is a sanctified place for Muslims, Jews and Christians. Baitul Maqdis consists of the blue-domed Jami' Al Aqsha building and the golden-domed Shakhrah, amongst other sites. The Shakhrah Dome itself was completed in 692 AD, making it one of the oldest Islamic buildings in the world. In the event of Isra 'Mi'raj, the Prophet Muhammad SAW was appointed to Sidratul Muntaha from the Al-Aqsa Mosque after being taken from the Al Haram Mosque in Mecca. The Al-Aqsa Mosque was once the Qibla and focal point for early Muslims before it was transferred to the Ka'bah in the Grand Mosque. However, Baitul Maqdis has become strongly associated with Islam, from the people to the bustling life in the busy streets.

The walnut finished frame consists of hand-carved floral themes that feature the ‘Melati Putih’ flower, indigenous to Indonesia. The Melati Putih, a small white flower , is a sacred flower in Indonesian tradition and symbolizes purity, sacredness, graceful simplicity and sincerity. Melati Putih is also the most important flower in wedding ceremonies in Java. We find it fitting to honor our Artisans' work with a framing design that is representative of their local tradition and culture. This unique and localized floral framing design completes our art and we believe differentiate our work from any other Art that features the city skyline of Baitul Maqdis.
