Description
Completing this tribute to Ammar Farhat, this stamp reproduces a classic genre scene from Tunisian life: two men sitting in a Moorish café, one smoking a hookah while a birdcage hangs nearby.

The Moorish café is a central social space in Tunisia. Through this painting, Farhat immortalizes a moment of “contemplation” and relaxation. His brush enhances the aesthetics of everyday life and the poetry of simple gestures, making traditional sociability a subject of noble and timeless art.
