Description

"Geza Fehervari presents the history of ceramics in the Islamic world through a wide and comprehensive collection of objects spanning all periods and regions of the Islamic world, including the results of the author's own excavations in Iran, Egypt and North Africa. In discussing the alluring tile work of the Islamic artistic tradition, particularly the faience mosaics found in Iran and Central Asia during the fourteenth century, the author also discusses buildings which were decorated by this technique." "Ceramics of the Islamic World draws largely on the rich collection of the Tareq Rajab Museum, with its great strength in early Islamic pottery."--BOOK JACKET.
