Zugleich ist Palmyra ein Beispiel für die Fähigkeit Jaudons, ästhetisch schöne Werke zu schaffen. Jaudon verwebt Rottöne zu verschnörkelten Arabesken, die an gotisches Mauerwerk, keltische Knoten und islamische Kalligraphie erinnern. Die Schärfe der Linien im Kontrast zum Impasto und die Schichtung der Rottöne lassen es so erscheinen, als seien die Linien wie Stein gemeißelt.
