專家說明
It is evident that Mamluk style continued after the Ottoman conquest of Egypt in 1517. Two very good examples of stone inlay that closely resemble this panel are in a fountain at the Kritliya House, built 1540-1631, now the Gayer Anderson Museum (https://archnet.org/library/images/one-image.jsp?location_id=10383&im age_id=113737), and all around the walls at the Mosque of Sheikh al-Burdayni, built in 1616-1627AD (Prisse d'Avennes, Arab Art, Paris 1877, pls.59 and 60; also https://archnet.org/library/images/one-image.jsp?location_id=4896&imag e_id=208914).
Further similar coloured marble inlay borders dating from the 15th to the 18th century can be seen illustrated in Prisse d'Avennes, Arab Art, Paris 1877, pl.52.
