| In this survey, Henri Stierlin discusses Islamic architecture and architectural decoration from the frontiers of Iran to the heart of India and places it within the historical context. Lavish illustrations of Islam's monuments, ceramics, jewelry, miniatures, textiles, mosaics, enamels and ivories enable us to use art as a window into Islamic culture. The final section of the book presents in depth nine great masterpieces of Islamic architecture, including the Friday Mosque in Isfahan, the Registan in Samarkand, the abandoned city of Fatehpur Sikri and Agra's miraculous Taj Mahal. |
