Although well known to many who visit the museum, this collection--which includes tableware, tiles, and sherds--has never before been published in its entirety. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Archaeologist, scholar, and curator John Carswell first began studying and cataloging these objects in the 1980s. This project has since been revived and guided to fruition by the curator of the Benaki Museum of Islamic Art, Mina Moraitou, who has also contributed a chapter on the Museum's founder Antonis Benakis and the formation of its Iznik collection. The catalog brings together these admired and sought-after ceramics, featuring over three hundred illustrations of pieces from the Museum's collection. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Carswell, Mina Moraitou, Melanie Gibson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1914983041\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781914983047\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gingko Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/11\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.34h x 9.45w x 1.10d","brand":"John Carswell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44131096854783,"sku":"9781914983047","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4ea6ab07-1634-44ef-a071-01f4a10046d1.jpg?v=1687472988","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/iznik-ceramics-at-the-benaki-john-carswell-9781914983047","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
