Palestinian artist unveils world's largest oil painting
BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- Ukraine-based Palestinian artist Dr Jamal Badwan on Wednesday unveiled the biggest oil painting in the world in a public park in Kiev.
Palestinian Authority Minister of Tourism Khloud Daibes and hundreds of Ukrainians and Palestinians attended the show.
The 310-square-meter painting portrait is expected to enter the Guinness Book of World Records. A Dutch artist currently holds the record, for a 210-square-meter oil painting.
Badwan told Al-Jazeera's Arabic-language website that the painting was inspired by Noah's Ark.
He painted the earth surrounded by people of all ethnicities, panicking as a huge flood approaches. They are led to safety by a dove through Al-Aqsa Mosque, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher and a famous Kiev church.
