Description



Islamic Chinoiserie: The Art of Mongol Iran (Edinburgh Studies in Islamic Art)
Edinburgh University Press | 2009 | ISBN-10: 0748635823 | 320 pages | PDF | 5 MB

The Mongol invasion in the thirteenth century marked a new phase in the development of Islamic art. Trans-Eurasian exchanges of goods, people and ideas were encouraged on a large scale under the auspices of the Pax Mongolica. With the fascination of portable objects brought from China and Central Asia, a distinctive, hitherto unknown style& mdash;Islamic chinoiserie& mdash;was born in the art of Iran. Highly illustrated, Islamic Chinoiserie offers a fascinating glimpse into the artistic interaction between Iran and China under the Mongols. By using rich visual materials from various media of decorative and pictorial arts& mdash;textiles, ceramics, metalwork and manuscript painting& mdash;the book illustrates the process of adoption and adaptation of Chinese themes in the art of Mongol-ruled Iran in a visually compelling way. The observation of this unique artistic phenomenon serves to promote the understanding of the artistic diversity of Islamic art in the Middle Ages.
