Описание: In 400 colour photographs, a famous expert on Islamic cultures presents the oriental treasures that enhanced civilization between the 7 and 8th centuries. Conveyed here, in splendid photographs, are the many works of art and architecture that reflect this extraordinary renewal of the spirit. We see, for example, how mosques, madras as, palaces, forts, gardens, publish baths, a mausoleums served as vehicles for inventive, daring architectural designs. The aesthetics of abstract decoration formed by the interweaving of geometric mosaics, colours, and arabesques expressed a feverish creativity on the part of Islamic artists. All of these - from the great mosques to works of elegant calligraphy - are explored. Featuring 400 colour images, this is a major work by a leading expert on Islamic culture and is a part of "Timeless Treasures" series.
