The Iraqi artist, Saeed Howeidi, succeeded in drawing a captivating picture of an Arab muse receptive to vitiligo using only threads and nails, thus achieving the Guinness World Records title for the largest artwork of thread and nail in the world.

Guinness World Records stipulated strict criteria for the adoption of this record, most notably the use of one continuous thread to form the required image, which has dimensions of 6.3 square meters (about 67 square feet and 20 inches).

The painting formed 500 nails and 6,637 meters of thread, which is more than the height of the famous Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa or eight times the height of the most famous Burj Khalifa in Dubai.

The painting was decorated with the attractive facial features of the Arab influencer Lujaina Salah, the Egyptian woman who seeks to raise awareness about vitiligo in the Arab world, and today globally.

The artwork reflects the proportions of black and white as a reference to the color tones of vitiligo patients.

Where the Iraqi artist took advantage of the light that permeates the threads and is reflected on the background to clarify the features of Lujaina, and sends a sublime message to the community of Vitiligo patients around the world.
