Owl - I'm so glad you posted here. Your questions are not unusual for the average art enthusiast, but given my numerous years as a friend of the Chicago Art Institute, I think I can help you come to a better understanding of what's going on here.

In this picture, some guy is on his back, waiting for his horse to consummate the marriage.

Islam is born.

I hope this helps in your quest for art appreciation.
