Excellent pieces,
By Dariush Aryamehr (IRAN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Persian Poetry, Painting and Patronage: Illustrations in a Sixteenth-century Masterpiece (Paperback)
This book presents masterpieces of Jami's Haft Ourang, which is in Persian. And I would like to stress that the Ottoman Civilisation was largely Iranian. Persian literature, art and governance were the pillars of Ottoman culture. Ottoman painting was formed on its Iranian models. Let us learn to appreciate Islamic art whatever origin the artist may have had.
