Лампа мечети для мавзолея эмира Айдакина аль-Алаи аль–Бундукдар

Египет, предположительно, Каир

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 454

Мамлюкские эмиры использовали эмблемы, которые зачастую отражали их церемониальную роль при дворе, а также служили украшением для предметов искусства и архитектурных сооружений Здесь два золотых арбалета на фоне красного щита указывают на то, что патрон этой лампы занимал высокую должность Бундукдара (хранителя лампы) при мамлюкском дворе. Надпись на лампе гласит, что она была выполнена для мавзолея эмира Айдакина аль-Алаи, умершего в Каире в 1285 г.
