Описание: This volume in Thames & Hudson's celebrated series cataloging the al-Sabah collection features a unique collection of carpets and textile fragments from the pre-Islamic and early Islamic world. The Sasanian fragments fill a substantial gap in the early history of pile carpets, dating from the second to the eighth century AD, and make a valuable contribution of the understanding of local artistic traditions.

The second half of the book is devoted to post-Sasanian and Sogdian silks dating from the sixth to the tenth century. A wave of these beautiful textiles has reached the West since the turn of the 21st century, and here they are divided into variants featuring birds, mammals, and mythological creatures, which retain their glowing colors and lively charm.

Описание: 'A painting must stand as a painting, made by human hand,' wrote Caspar David Friedrich, 'not seek to disguise itself as Nature.' One of his generation's most popular painters, Friedrich imagined landscapes of powerful beauty and spirituality from within the confines of his studios. This breathtaking monograph, filled with glorious reproductions and details of his paintings, argues for Friedrich's reputation as a sublime artist and interpreter of nature. In his thoughtful and well-researched commentary, author Johannes Grave explores Friedrich's unique approach to landscape painting as well as his revolutionary thoughts about how these paintings should be received by their viewers. Looking closely at pieces such as 'Monk by the Sea,' 'The Abbey in the Oakwood,' and the 'Tetschen Altar,' Graves shows how Friedrich developed an innovative approach to landscape painting, one that communicated a new sense of space and time, and which draws the viewer into a unique aesthetic experience. Readable, insightful, and copiously illustrated in a deluxe volume, this compelling new perspective sheds crucial light on Friedrich's celebrated body of work.

Описание: This book is about one of the greatest and most influential architects and designers of the 19th century. Schinkel designed many of the great buildings of his native Germany; his architecture still dominates Berlin. Schinkel was also a painter and theatre designer; his work in these areas, as in his earliest architecture, were key expressions of German romanticism. His architectural style soon changed, however, as he began to create grand neo-classical style buildings in Berlin. During this period he designed the buildings and furniture of the royal palaces in Berlin and Potsdam, devising classical garden and architectural complexes that remain among the most beautiful ever created. This survey of Schinkel's career is enriched by photographs of his buildings and art objects and reproductions of many of his drawings and paintings, all accompanied by detailed commentary. The book serves as the catalogue for an exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum which runs from 31 July - 27 October 1991.
