Oasis edge
Gardens and orchards form a band around the built-up area, and beyond them the map opens into the steppe, creating a clear line between green and desert.

The map
About this Al Qaryatayn map poster
Al Qaryatayn lies in the Syrian steppe southeast of Homs, on the old route towards Palmyra. On the map it appears as a compact settlement set in wide, nearly empty land, with the edge between town, gardens and desert unusually sharp. Roads leave the centre in a few clear directions and then run for long distances across the plain.
The town has long been home to both Muslim and Christian communities. Nearby stood the ancient monastery of Mar Elian, a place of pilgrimage for centuries, which was badly damaged during the war in 2015. Many residents were displaced in those years, and the town's recent history is part of how it is remembered today.
An Al Qaryatayn map poster shows the town the way the steppe frames it: a tight knot of streets surrounded by irrigated plots and then open ground. In a restrained black-and-white print, the contrast between the dense centre and the emptiness around it becomes the main composition, calm and quite striking.

Compact old core
The centre is a dense web of short, irregular streets, typical of older Syrian towns built for shade and closeness rather than wide avenues.
Desert roads
A few long roads leave town towards Homs and Palmyra, running almost straight across the plain and giving the print strong directional lines.
