{"product_id":"studies-in-islamic-painting-ernst-grube-9780907132622","title":"Studies in Islamic Painting","description":"Ernst Grube's research on Islamic painting over more than three decades has dealt with materials, issues and problems ranging from 10th-century Egypt through Ottoman Turkey to 19th-century Persia. The studies collected in this volume represent the breadth of his scholarship: they collect and lay new materials before the reader, isolate and define schools of painting as thinking about them coalesces, and propose new interpretations of materials already well-known to scholars and students. Most of these studies are reprinted without major alterations, but additional notes at the end make some essential readjustments. Article 5, a study of a drawing on a so-called 'Fustat-Fragment', possibly of 9th-century date, has 50 pages of illustrations of such fragments, not included in the original article and most of them not published before. Professor Grube brings the methodological approach of a Western Medievalist to the study of a primary form of Islamic art. These articles are all essential reading for anyone interested in painting as a major form of art not only in the lands where Islam held sway but also in Late Classical Antiquity, Medieval Europe and Byzantium.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ernst Grube\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0907132626\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780907132622\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pindar Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 547\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.53h x 6.77w x 1.57d","brand":"Ernst Grube","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43926814884095,"sku":"9780907132622","price":143.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b4fe8f9d-63ea-4dc1-b819-7c47feb206ae.jpg?v=1681085168","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/studies-in-islamic-painting-ernst-grube-9780907132622","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
