Mad by Love Painted By Marianne Botros

A story of love, devotion, and longing beautifully reimagined in silk. Inspired by the legendary romance of Qays and Layla, this exquisite silk scarf captures one of the Arab world’s most enduring love stories, a love so profound that Qays became known as Majnun, “the one driven mad by love.

The composition unfolds through figures reaching toward one another across a dreamlike landscape of swirling skies, flowing ribbons, roses, and blossoming vines, evoking the distance, yearning, and emotional intensity that define their story. Ornate golden links and circular medallions frame the artwork, while the intertwining branches suggest a connection that continues despite separation.
