A Palestinian woman grinds the thyme-based spice mix, zaatar, by hand, in The Old Promise, painted by Palestinian artist Wael Rabee. The subject, a refugee from Lifta, Jerusalem, was displaced in 1948 and now lives in Ramallah. The piece is part of the Colours of Return, an online art exhibition of works by 31 artists aimed at preserving Palestinian identity and showcasing the beauty of Palestinian heritage, whilst also drawing attention to the hardships faced under years of occupation.
