Doors of Al Ain

Doors of Al Ain
Alex Jeffries
AED 95.00

A tale of the times, the people and their heritage, Doors of Al Ain showcases the quaint doors of old villas photographed by Alex Jeffries over three years with the intention of preserving a tiny slice of Al Ain and the oasis city’s culture for posterity.

Al Ain is largely untouched by the oil riches that have changed the landscape of other cities in the region; there are no skyscrapers or ten-lane highways. The tallest buildings across the skyline of Al Ain are the minarets of mosques.

Jeffries tells the tales whispered through the aging Al Ain architecture, and through his photographs, Doors of Al Ain becomes a beautiful time capsule of the oasis city and the UAE’s legacy.
