Wonderful book
Nice book. Plenty to take on board. The intricacies of Islamic art and architecture never cease to amaze me. How I'd love to see the more remote buildings for real.

Islamische Kunstgeschichte at its best
Wie schwer es ist ist, die 1000 järige Geschichte der Islamischen Kunst zusammen zu fassen, ohne sich in zu vielen Detailfragen zu verlieren zeigt das Team von Moya Carey. Carey war Studentin an der Londoner School for Oriental and African Studies, der Eliteschule für Islamische Kunstgeschichte. Es gibt im Buch zunächst einige einleitende Abschnitte, bestimmte wichige Detailfragen werden dann auf jeweils zwei Seiten beantwortet und mit Abbildungen illustriert. Es wird Architektur und Malerei bearbeitet, aber auch die Angewandte Kunst in ihren vielen Fassetten, was nicht oft und in so gekonnter Weise vorgestellt wird. Herzlich Glückwunsch an die Autorin. Ich bin froh, dass ich das Buch kaufte.
