Stone Quarrying
early 8th century AD
Audience Hall, Amra, Jordan
The eastern barrel vault is divided into small panels that depict artisans and their occupations. In the lower register, camels are transporting stone blocks, while carpenters work above. Other frescoes in the room, not shown here, depict scenes from court life, hunting, and classical mythology.
