This is a print reproduction of Once Was Known 9, a powerful original acrylic canvas (2012) by Palestinian artist Monther Jawabreh. Born in Al‑Aroub refugee camp in 1976 and educated at Al‑Najah National University, Jawabreh uses painting and experimental media to reframe symbols of resistance and identity in Palestinian life.
In this work, a figure draped in a crisp kuffiyah holds a blooming flower in a pot. The blue tones, vertical lines, and calm posture evoke hope amid layered struggle. It’s part of his Once Was Known series—where everyday scenes meet iconic symbolism to critique and humanize the myth of nationalism.
Kuffiyah holds exclusive copyright to publish and sell these prints. With every sale, a percentage of the profit goes directly to Monther Jawabreh and Bab al Deir Art Gallery, supporting creative infrastructure in Palestine.
