大英博物館さんのインスタグラム写真 - (大英博物館Instagram)「#EidMubarak to all those celebrating 🎉 Today is the end of #Ramadan, and Muslims all over the world will be celebrating Eid al-Fitr – the breaking of the fast. Carved from a single block of marble and decorated in relief with lions, fantastic beasts and Arabic blessings, this stand – or kilga – was used to support a clay jar of water. The Qur’an repeatedly instructs Muslims to provide water for the thirsty, and this kilga may have been commissioned by an individual as an act of piety to provide refreshment to passers-by in a public setting. 🔍 Jar stand for water (Kilga). Marble, Egypt, 12th century. #BritishMuseum #Eid #EidAlFitr」4月22日 1時00分
